| Braid performing well with 28.5k Sales | |
| Posted: 12.08.2008 05:00 by Jamie | |
The official Braid blog site has been updated with information on how well the platformer is selling on the Xbox Live Marketplace, along with news of a Metacritic average of 92 percent. Designer Jon Blow explains that sales have been going at a steady pace, but more will be required until this turns into a profitable game; "People have asked me how many sales Braid needs in order to be profitable. The answer is, a lot more than it has gotten so far. (There are many reasons for this, which I may be motivated to talk about in the future). However, things are looking promising now — if Braid keeps selling, I’ll be able to afford to make the next game, and that will be good." said Blow. | |

| Posted: 06.08.2008 03:54 by Jamie | |
Just a quick note to let you know that Braid, puzzle-platformer by Number None Inc, is now available to download for 1200 Microsoft Points on the Xbox Live Marketplace. Braid is a puzzle-platformer, drawn in a painterly style, where the player manipulates the flow of time in strange and unusual ways. From a house in the city, journey to a series of worlds and solve puzzles to rescue an abducted princess. In each world, you have a different power to affect the way time behaves, and it is time's strangeness that creates the puzzles. The time behaviors include: the ability to rewind, objects that are immune to being rewound, time that is tied to space, parallel realities, time dilation, and perhaps more. Braid treats your time and attention as precious; there is no filler in this game. Every puzzle shows you something new and interesting about the game world. | |
