Aquaria, the indie, aquatic take on
Metroid, is one of the most beautiful indie games ever released, and judging by the competition this really is quite a feat. It has won numerous prizes, wowed thousands of gamers, impressed more than a few non-gamers, created a vibrant community around it and made PC gamers very happy indeed. Well, and that's the good news, the time has come for
Aquaria to get its much deserved
iPad port.
Semi Secret are handling it and will be releasing the game sometime this winter. Oh, and though you could check the
PC demo out, this teaser video should be teasing enough:
