Aquaria (video game)

Aquaria is an action-adventure game designed by Alec Holowka and Derek Yu, who published the game in 2007 as an independent game company Bit Blot. The side-scrolling game follows Naija, an aquatic humanoid woman, as she explores the underwater world of Aquaria.

The gameplay focuses on a combination of swimming, singing, and combat, through which Naija can interact with the world.
