Braid: Anniversary Edition has "sold like dog shit", according to its creator Jonathan Blow. Blow regularly streams on …

Finally, on 27th July, Blow noted the “whole industry is having a hard time” and then, when asked how many of his development team are working on the compiler for programming language Jai, Blow replied: “None, because we can’t afford to pay anyone because the sales are bad.”

Oof. I don’t like Jon Blow, but I do like Braid. Sad to see nobody really cares about it anymore.

    I was going to buy braid, but the original was delisted and the anniversary edition is 10x the price on sale. Will have to wait a few years for it to fall into 80% territory again.

        I didn’t know that about the creator. I’m fairly anti piracy when it comes to indie games, even if I don’t agree with the devs views. I still hope he gets it and has a bad time with COVID if that is the case though.
