It's currently going very cheap as part of the Humble Indie Bundle. You just need to make sure you pay above the average price (which is currently $4.12 = £2.64 !).
Seems to be fine on my mini-itx Sam440 (with built-in 64MB gfx-card)... although a graphics card with more RAM (128MB is recommended) would no-doubt help a great deal, because I had to reduce my Workbench to a 16-bit screenmode & disable Compositing (in Sys:Prefs/GUI) to get enough video RAM for the game to not run slowly, plus I was only running the game in 640x480 (also 16-bit from the looks of it).
@Phantom To my surprise it does seem to include the data files, yes, but I'm not sure how legal it is to use them without buying Aquaria (and at as little as £3 if you are stingy, I don't see why not).
You don't need it. I just bought the bundle, claiming to be on Linux, and using MUI-OWB and PayPal. You get a page after paying, containing a URL with your key embedded. Do save the link; supposedly it will also come in a mail, but that hasn't arrived yet half an hour later. But using the link page, I downloaded as .tar.gz what I wanted with no problems. Note that these are pretty big files, ISTR you have a low bandwidth? The biggest one is the one for Aquaria at around 192 MB.

The deal runs out near the end of Tuesday...
Thanks for posting the link.
I purchased the pack to support the developers and also get the registered data files to use Aquaria under OS4 as I expect the files included with the OS4 version are from the demo version rather than the full release.
@All Now for my problem Aquaria does not seem to be veryt stable on my sam440ep mini-itx. So far it has locked up once on the menu in game (possible a known issue going by the readme) and also DSI on me after just a few minutes of play.
As my sam440ep only has 512MB or RAM and 64MB graphics onboard I dropped my Workbench screen done to 640x480-16 bit and turned off compositing but that did not stop the game from crashing, are other sam440ep owners having the same problem or is it just me?

@Dwyloc If you are using sam440ep_setup, then try disabling it (do a hard reboot to ensure it's effects are cleared). Also, is your Sam440 sufficiently well ventillated? Try disabling everything in your WbStartup, by holding Shift while booting.
Admittedly I have not used Aquaria for long, but I did get to the first "black transition" (where I assume it is loading a new level).

I already removed that when I installed update 3 or I would not be typing this on my sam440ep as the keyboard would have stopped working as soon as I started OWB-MUI and as of yet I have not made it to the first loading section without a crash.
