I truly believe I’m doing the world a favor by posting this audio file. When I first found out about the minigame and heard the song I looked for a long time to find a downloadable copy. So here for you, I am providing the so called “Noby Noby Overature” in full length and in ringtone size featuring my favorite part cropped down to around 30 seconds. Also, this post was really easy to do with the new media uploading features of Wordpress 2.8! Enjoy!

The video looked amazing and I immediately forgot about Célu to go look for more info on Aquaria.
As it turned out I had discovered the game only a day after its online-exclusive release. As it was, the website for the game was down and I only managed to dig up the off-site purchase link from the Google cache of what used to be the site.
