By: Plimus “We are extremely excited by the response to the game so far," commented Derek Yu of Bit-Blot. "We've worked hard to create something that's special to us, and it's gratifying to see so many others enjoy it." In its review, Wired Magazine focused on the “high production values and intuitive controls” of Aquaria. Commenting on the award of the Independent Games Festival grand prize, Wired said it’s “easy to see why” the honor was awarded. Leveraging the easily-customized interface of the Plimus system, Bit-Blot is delivering a consistent interface that allows customers around the world to transact business in over a dozen languages and currencies. With the choice of substantially any payment type – from credit cards to phone orders – Bit-Blot is ensuring they close orders with no concern for the stability or robustness of their e-commerce back office. "Plimus has been great to work with," added Mr. Yu. "Their service lets us concentrate on the game, rather than our e-commerce platform, which is important for an independent developer like us." “We are extremely proud of our association with Bit-Blot, and congratulate them on their success,” commented Guy Wilnai, SVP of Business Development of Plimus. “To see a high-quality product meet this sort of market acceptance validates the hard work of Plimus and the vendors we support. We could hardly be more thrilled to see Aquaria doing so well, and look forward to continuing our highly valued relationship with Bit-Blot.” More information about Aquaria, as well as downloads, can be found at the Bit-Blot website at http://bit-blot.com/ About Bit-Blot Bit-Blot is an independent game company led by Alec Holowka, an experienced programmer and composer; and Derek Yu, an illustrator and web developer with a long history of developing and publishing freeware and online games.
