Everyone derives different experiences out of playing the same game.  So what are some of the more interesting takes on TGL themes that you perceived while playing it?

I loved the...

-  A sense of the lone heroine, going on a very lonely, frightening and isolating mission because no one else could accomplish it.
-  The strange duality of natural creature enemies coupled with high technology enemies (Eyeballs one minute then laser beam shooting ships the next).
-  The comfort Miria must have felt in the Blue Landers, even though they aren't human and probably only semi-intelligent.  (What is their origin?)
-  The landscape of NAJU is haunting.  It's bleak (the music helps with this feeling too) and seems to have harsh conditions all over.  Snow, wastelands, crystal formations, etc.

I haven't come back here for a while, but I was curious to see if anything had started up here.

I'd like to offer my services, for whatever they may be worth.  I don't have much to offer but I can do the following (and will do them for free, in spare time)

-  Voice Acting
-  Short Sound FX
-  Audio Mixing/Mastering
-  Song Composition
-  Basic, basic, basic, basic, basic, basic programming 
-  Plot Production/Writing/Script Editing/Grammar/Proofreading
-  Level Design
-  Beta Testing/Debugging

Just lemme know if you need me.    I will check here more often.

Done by none other than The Advantage.  Check out their other stuff, it's incredible.

Hi, my name is Mike.  Thanks for having me.

I made a post over on GameFAQs about a debug menu mystery I remembered from my childhood and someone directed me here.  It's nice to finally meet fans of such a wonderful game.

A little about me...

-  I'm an AVID nostalgia gamer.  I play emulated games on a daily basis, almost.  Everything from NES, GB, SNES, Genesis, PS1 and more.  I play modern games too, of course.  I played Asheron's Call in the early 00's and WoW for a bit.  I'm a software engineering student.  I am a music fanatic-  Anything and everything.  I play in an experimental noise/psych band in Washington, D.C., but I love all kinds of music.  I am a huge advocate of non-interference in video game history.  I LOVE HD remakes of games, so long as they don't violate the original mechanics or storyline of the game.  (Graphics/interface upgrades only please!)

What TGL has meant to me...

-  When I was a kid, I remember being enthralled by TGL's music.  That's what hooked me.  The final, conclusive bars of the theme at the very beginning of the game (the one where you're flying into NAJU).

-  I helped my older cousin map out all the zones and collect weapons.  He played while I watched and recorded notes.  The hardest bosses included the Blue Eyeball that shoots the little snake/hair thingies, the Blue Eyeball monster (the one that steadily loses eyeballs and spews more eyeballs as you damage him) and the red tentacle monster mini-boss in the Cell-like zone of the overworld map.

-  Finally, I bought a copy of my own one day and enjoyed it many times.

So, glad to be here.  Hope to post more.
