To all you Braid fans, I’m sure you’ll be excited to know that designer Jonathan Blow’s newest project titled, ‘The Witness’ has had a lot of update releases this past week. The game’s official website is fronted with some poetic, ‘Jonathan Blow-ian,’ insightful mumbo jumbo:
(I R ROBOT, THIS DOES NOT COMPUTE)
I have no idea what the crap any of that means but the site later describes the game as “a exploration-puzzle game on an uninhabited island,” so I’m alright. They also released some concept art which looks pretty promising.
Nifty. Braid was so amazing, let’s hope this can amount to our poetic, philosophical, puzzle-playing satisfaction. It’s just too bad we have to wait til late 2011! Sad face.
No, this is not about Robert Pattinson happily smiling at you while doing your dishes, so all you Twilighter idiots can go hyperventilate someplace else!
The gnarly, 2-D side-scroller ‘The Dishwasher: Dead Samurai‘ was a violent blood bath fest on XBLA. For some reason I never brought myself to play it. Despite the fact that my list of games to play is more or less turning into a 5ft long pirate’s scroll, (YEEAARGH!) I’m extremely motivated to play it now that Ska Studios has released the trailer for its sequel ‘The Dishwasher: Vampire Smile.’
Braid is the 2-D side-scroller that I purchased from Xbox Live Arcade some time ago. I played it, I beat it and MY MIND WAS BLOWN. Like *WABOOOOOOOOOOM!* Sweet, sweet carnage!
It was so awesome, I thought I’d write an overview for those of you who haven’t played it because you should! Hit the jump for my overview!
