Braid Preorders Now on Impulse!

The much-anticipated PC version of the hit Braid, is now available for preorder on Impulse! 

“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.”

The preorder is available for $14.95, and launch date is set for March 31st.  See more at http://www.impulsedriven.com/braid.

Not the place to ask, but is there a hope for seeing Bionic Commando Rearmed on Impulse?

That's the price the devs set for the PC version.

I don't mean to sound ungrateful but why does it cost $5 more than the 360 version?

i can be wrong but i am fairly sure that braid was initially sold 20$ on xbox, so it is the same launch price. If that really upsets you, just wait a little bit, impulse loves doing low prices weekends.

It wasn't.  People complained heavily on the 360 that the game wasn't worth $15, though it was the first $15 game.  I don't want to come off as rude, but I really don't think this game will sell well on Impulse at $20.

 

People were plenty willing to pay $15 for the Street Fighter II remix though.  (hint hint to Stardock)

Yeah I know.  I know I'll just get other stuff on Impulse in the future instead.  ^_^

BTW if Capcom is working with Stardock- try to get Street Fighter IV PC on Impulse hard.

People complained that Brad wasn't worth $15?!  I would gladly have paid 20-25 bucks for it...I enjoyed every moment of the game and was blown away by creativity at every step.

[UPDATE] Price has been lowered to $14.95.  see here and here

 

If you've already pre-ordered, don't worry.  You'll still get charged the correct amount.

I have a healing finger covered in hydrocortozone that has really been messing with my spelling :(  Don't tease X(

But yes, I strongly beleive Braid would be worth a 20-note, despite public outcrys causing a retraction.

Like I said.  The price is $14.95.  It's not a sale price.  That IS the price now.  Pre-orders haven't been charged yet, so you'll get charged the correct amount.
