Aquaria - Gaming World Forums

There is a fork at one point in the tutorial level, this time I went down and carried on playing and everything went smoothly, the first time I played I went up and ended up in this maze of tunnels which was really annoying, and I swam around it for five minutes and got bored. I knew there was a map but still.

now is the winter of our discontent

Yeah but the thing is there isn't a maze of tunnels.

like i said unless you have absolutely no sense of direction you physically can't get lost

(the grey dot in one of the tunnels is a rock so you cant even go that way)

why would you play it if you dont like it

just so you can whine about it more or what

I didn't say I didn't like it. (If you look closely, Drule didn't either.)

I said the gameplay felt like a chore.

That shouldn't be hard to understand, given how well RPG games with tedious gameplay do.

WELP I didn't really bother looking at the map at all, even when it told me to but yeah. I see what you mean, I must have been moving in circles or something.

People enjoy different things. It'd be nice if I could enjoy 100% of aquarias, but enjoying 50% of it is still enough to get me to play it. (any lower than that and I have to have some "enjoyment enhancers" in my system to play it. *coughweedcough*)

Really enjoying it so far.. I've reached the Open Waters and have explored a bit from there, accidently going to the Abyss and Kelp Forest.

After I find the statue in Open Waters, where do I go from there?

Because the programmers are lazy.

More like: Because today there's so much CPU power and memory that you can focus not on writing some damn game engine, but on making a damn game instead.

Naija tells you that when you inspect the statue.
