    Is there some kind of secret indie game developer hangout where people eat greens and strike up deals with major console publishers that we are not privy to?

  2. Bill Gates said 21 minutes later:

    Its called “my pants”.

  3. fish said 25 minutes later:

  4. Rz. said 28 minutes later:

  5. FireSword said 35 minutes later:

    AT Bill Gates, where can i have a re-fund for that useless crap called vista? LOL

  6. FireSword said 36 minutes later:

  7. fish said 40 minutes later:

    Rz: its one of those games you ahve to see in motion. its like a living painting. its absolutely gorgeous. stuff moves in subtle ways everywhere.

  8. fish said 42 minutes later:

    also, looking at that pic, i can only think that the guy on the left will soon have something published on wii.

    such is the power of…that pic. you’re in it, you get published.

    Yes man, you are.

  10. haowan said about 1 hour later:

    I absolutely adore the art in Braid!

  11. Oddbob said about 2 hours later:

    Fantastic!

  12. Xander said about 2 hours later:

    The one thing I can’t stop thinking about with Braid is the main character looks a lot like a kid I knew at secondary school. Same little outfit and everything.

    That’s about it. Um… go XBLA

  13. Jonathan Blow said about 2 hours later:

    The green beans at that party were really good.

  14. fish said about 3 hours later:

    was that at lulu’s?

  15. Jonathan Blow said about 3 hours later:

    Nope, it was the Indiecade E3 after-party.

  16. moi said about 3 hours later:

    You can tell that thes two have just been having hot hot sex

  17. moi said about 3 hours later:

    …And then showered and got back to work.

  18. Lim-Dul said about 4 hours later:

    You do realize that Jon Mak is a dude? =)

  19. Jonathan Blow said about 5 hours later:

    I am thrilled that this conversation is going in this particular direction, and will be searchable on Internet archives until the end of time, any time someone wants to look up my name.

    Just thrilled.

  20. Sifu Peng said about 5 hours later:

    Hey I’m that guy on the left…

    crosses fingers

    Lim-Dul said about 4 hours later: You do realize that Jon Mak is a dude? =)

    your point being?

  22. Calanctus said about 8 hours later:

    Oh geez, XBLA? WHY? The least you could do is a PC port.

  23. Jonathan Blow said about 8 hours later:

    There will be a PC version released. But it’s easier to do XBLA first, since that is a fixed platform, so it allows us to just get the game done without worrying about the huge array of compatibility issues that comes with the PC.

  24. gustav said about 11 hours later:

    Rz, you’re not the only one. I love the backgrounds and think they’re stunning, but the way the sprites (dull, just dull) and some less detailed backgrounds clash just makes the whole thing look awful… In my eyes, of course.

    mmm, green beans.

  25. DrDerekDoctors said about 16 hours later:

    You don’t have to worry about the huge complexity of PCs, you just have to worry about it running on mine. ;)

  26. Calanctus said about 19 hours later:

    Okay, just as long as there will be a PC version eventually. I’d hate for indie to migrate to XBLA en masse, which sometimes seems like it could happen.

  27. Lim-Dul said about 19 hours later:

    OK - my comment didn’t get published because I used an apparently censored word (in a non-offensive way).

    I’ll try again:

    Lim-Dul said about 4 hours later: You do realize that Jon Mak is a dude? =)

    papamook said about 8 hours later: your point being?

    This was a response to this comment:

    moi said about 3 hours later: You can tell that thes two have just been having hot hot sex

    I don’t know if Jonathan Blow is straight or not but if he is then this comment is kinda disturbing. =)

    The funny thing is that from this angle Jon Mak really does look like a girl, albeit with a flat chest. No offense meant (for the girl part as well as the flat chest part). =)

  28. jonathan mak said about 19 hours later:

    first of all, they’re not green beans, they’re asparagus. awesome asparagus.

    second of all, jblow is hawt. there, i’ve said what you’ve all been wanting to say.

    third of all, stop looking at my boobs.

  29. fish said about 20 hours later:

    blow is a HUSTLER. i’ve seen him dance.

  30. moi said 1 day later:

    Can’t you see the LOVE in his eyes?

  31. Derek said 1 day later:

    I just noticed that Jon Blow is making a plastic cup levitate above his head!

  32. Lim-Dul said 1 day later:

    No, no, he’s making TWO cups levitate around him (look at the one on the right). Behold the power! Now we know that Braid with its crazy time-manipulation stuff is based on facts and has some autobiographical elements in it - author self-insertion probably. ;-)

    No wonder the astonished look on Jon Mak’s face. :-D

  33. Anthony Flack said 1 day later:

    I guess I’m not the only one who thinks that the backgrounds in Braid look spektakulaar but the character art is pretty hum.

    Ah, but who cares? JB is obviously some kind of design super-genius. High hopes for this one.

  34. papamook said 1 day later:

    As my missus would say, Mak is totally jones’n to blow!

  35. Dan MacDonald said 1 day later:

    I found the characters to be a bit more endearing in motion then in screen shots.

  36. Derek said 4 days later:

    Dan, are you talking about Braid, or the photo of Jon-Jon? :3
