Best damn indie game ever (sorry Data and Pixel). Intriguing story, excellent art and music, GREAT puzzles.

Lets not discuss answers to puzzles here people, the game isn't about the ending, it's about the journey, don't ruin the journey.

Discuss.

*spoilers*I've beaten it, but I don't want to start an entire new game to get the star in the house. I wish you could pull apart the World 3 puzzle.*spoilers*

I don't know that I'd call it the best indie game ever (chances are we haven't heard of that one due to the very nature of indie games).

It is however definitely one of the best games ever made, and in my opinion at least as high as Portal, if not possibly more.

I am going on a star run my second playthrough.

Tim has beaten it three times already.

I agree with this statement. Braid is the best thing that ever happened to the Indie scene, so far. Hopefully, more indie developers will follow suit.

No links, screens, in depth description of mechanics?

Sounds good.
But I wish I had a link.

Picture:


Likes slightly like a rip-off of Super Mario Bros... but that's just my first impression.

This game is awful, and it cost like 1400 MS points...It's like super mario with better graphics with decent physics and ♥♥♥♥.

That's what it LOOKS like. But each world has a different twist on the affects of time, it's really brilliant. Lemme find a video...

That video perfectly describes the game.


It's completely worth the $15, its not just a fail mario rip-off, It's a truly good indie game with great mechanics. Try the Demo.

I'll bet you haven't even played it.

dis just maryo rip awf n/m teh TIEM CUNTRUL!!!!

A good Mario ripoff? What?

I never thought it could be done, but from what I've heard all of it's gameplay is based on Mario, with a Prince of Persia time thing in it.

So 'til it comes to PC I can't play it, but I'll be waiting.

It is an excellent game, even just the trial. Can't wait to unlock the full thing.

It's not a "ripoff" at all, unless you count every platformer that's ever existed as a ripoff.

And the time control functions much differently from Prince of Persia once you get into the harder puzzles.

It's really that good? I must try this then, I've seen a few videos and I might get it.

Looks really nice too.

It's very much as good as all the smart people say it is.

NOT TO MENTION:

Braid is the most popular Xbox Live Arcade game of all time.

And,

It is the 8th most popular game to come out for the Xbox 360 of all time, of all games to come out for the Xbox 360.
