The PC version of Braid has been delayed until April 10. According to the official Braid blog, the delay is the result of having to fix “problems that came up in testing with various versions of Windows.”
Rest easy. It seems like team-Braid (Jonathan Blow) is committed to making it work on the yucky platform: “I know folks have been waiting a long time for the PC version and it’s not so great to have to wait an extra 10 days, but it’s only so that I can try to ship you guys a version that works well (which frankly is impossible in Windows, but the best I can do is make it work for most people most of the time).”
In other Braid PC news, the blog also boasts that a music-based “surprise” is coming. Wonder what it could be?

Is this more like reality? --->http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gwlE1aASc4g
Well, this workman can at least make cool things, so awesome.
I'm sure you know more about it than Jonathan Blow does! Right EternalDeathSlayer? PhazonYoshi what's your experience with cross-platform game development? Blaming his tools? No, just making an honest and informed acknowledgement of developing a game for Windows versus platforms with identical hardware and software.
-PL-, he was obviously referring to getting it to work well on *all* PCs. But you knew that and chose to make an idiotic comment regardless. Why did you do that? Did you want to appear stupid?
yet yutt.. hehe
This guys attitude really stinks. He initially was talking about how he wouldn't see a profit from the game despite its higher than average price, then decided it was nicely profitable AND wanted to charge more for a late port of it even though he doesn't care about the money...
Oh and Brad, what's so 'yucky' about the PC as a gaming platform? Many developers get along with it perfectly fine. Those who don't do so habitually and everyone knows what to expect from them. I like coming here for news on console stuff and the C-Blogs but DToid is the last place I go for PC news and this is one of the reasons why.
