Are you able to give a window for it’s release less vague than “spring”?

The plan is to release it in Japan (we have already done the Japanese translation’s first draft).

If for some reason Microsoft does not release it in that region, then the PC version will definitely be available in Japan.

As a gamer living in Japan I’m anxious Braid won’t get released here.. Do you know if it will be released in Japan?

Erik, thanks for the compliment about the comic and sorry to hear about that little part of your soul winding down, but these things happen.

Great interview, and yes, David is basically still an embryo, but a well spoken and thoughtful one! The 1up guys are really doing right by the indie scene these days.

The visual editor tweaks and modifies the html code, when you switch between the visual and html editor. It replaces \n with and adds -tags and stuff like that. (I hope the html tags are readable). They tend to break your html formatting quite easily and that’s why you can’t really embed stuff with it. I hope they fix that at some point, but then again I’m already used to using just the html editor.

Cool interview. I anticipate this game more and more whenever I read about all the thought, intention, and care going into its production.

I have to say I was shocked at how young Hellman looks/is… and as a ardent fan of ALIL, a little part of me died when its “winding down” was mentioned so off-handedly.
