Hello,

We (Wired Games) would like to present Water Galaxy. It's really a labour of love and we are very proud of our baby.

Water Galaxy is a 2D gravity based puzzle game.
The Saphira people are in need of water, and all galaxies are running out. It is your task to use gravity fields to guide water from other planets to the Mothership., which transports the water back to the Saphira. Throughout the galaxies you encounter wormholes, poisonous gas clouds, mysterious force fields and many more challenges.

Key features

-over 50 levels in 9 different galaxies
-Includes the extensive level editor that was used to build the levels.
-Share all your levels online
-Full HD graphics
-6 full unique soundtracks
-Clear tutorial
-Easy to learn, hard to master

    @CygnusZ We will post a demo on the day it's released, this Wednsday. It will contain the tutorial galaxy, and a galaxy with a selction of levels. You will also get acces to the editor and the custom levels people created!

    @KafkaAU: We would really like to do this. Unfortunatly, the software we used to create this game (we had to use it for a couple of reasons) doesn't have an iOs or Android option. It will support that in the future however, or we might port it manually. Short answer: Not now, but sometimes in the future.

    I was expecting something more along the lines of Solar (which I love!). This seems kinda like Rocket Bunnies, without the spiders. Excellent first? jaunt into the gaming world, I look forward to seeing more from you guys.

    Thank you Dyvion :) It looks a bit like Rocket bunnies but plays differently. Be sure to check out the demo tommorow.

    In other news:
    Indie Game magazine did a short story about Water Galaxy: goo.gl/fb/g0pPZ

    More articles and videos coming soon!

    I think I need to give a workshop on "how to market your indie game". We have sold exactly 1 (!) copy so far!

    Maybe we should make a charity fund for indies without sales. You can donate over here: http://indievania.com/games/water-galaxy :)

    I just downloaded the demo, I'll hopefully get to try it out later today when I have some time. Looks interesting.

    I was actually trying to remember this thread cause I figured I'd give it a try when it was actually released, but I couldn't remember the name of the game or anything about it. Fortunately this thread was right on the front page. Gonna snag the demo.
