Depois de ter saido na Xbox LIVE Arcade e de muitos pedidos, Jonathan Blow decidiu seguir os pedidos e lançar para PC o surpreendente e uma das surpresas deste ano, Braid. Segundo Jonathan,até já estava a planear a lançá-lo no final deste ano mas por várias razões, não conseguiu a tempo e prevê agora lançar entre Fevereiro e Março de 2009. O próprio criador ainda avança que está em conversas com uma editora para lançá-lo também para Mac e de uma possivel presença na PlayStation 3 mas esta depende completamente da decisão da Sony.
Para terem uma ideia desta obra brilhante, podem ler a análise do nosso colega Luis em relação à versão para a Xbox 360.
A lot of people are writing in asking about the release date for the Braid PC version.
I had originally announced the release date for the end of 2008, but for various reasons, this hasn’t happened. Once we slipped into mid-October and all the big Christmas-season blockbusters started coming out, it just seemed like a bad idea to schedule Braid for that time period, as it seems likely it’d get released and then disappear.
At this time, we’re looking at a window of February-March 2009 for the PC release. I know this isn’t good news for those of you who have been waiting a long time for the game, but there sure are lots of games out there for you to play in the meantime.
I am also in talks with someone to do a Mac version (native code). The release date for this would be hopefully not long after the PC version.
There are no plans for other platforms in the near future, though as I’ve mentioned before, a PS3 version a little later on remains a possibility (though again, this depends on whether Sony is interested in the game).
Thanks, and have a good New Year.
