Alec Holowka

I finally decided to talk about the creator of my favorite video game and one of the best soundtracks ever.

Alec Holowka created Aquaria, a metroid-vania style game with dazzling environments and lucid, dreamy melodies.  The immersive atmosphere and perfect soundtrack won my heart over instantly.  I've lost count of how much Ive replayed this game, and loved every minute.
