It seemed that 2D games had more or less disappeared from the PC video gaming world. But as of late the 2D games have woken from their lethargy. This has been confirmed by the launching of great games like
Braid, that have proven that great things can be down without having to use the 3 dimensions.
Braid is the debut game of the independent studio

Braid tells us a very deep and mature story, with many humorous touches and
references to some of the great classics of platform games.

Braid are the
absolute control of time, that will avoid loosing live, and the many incredible amount of
puzzles that is includes, that we will have to solve if we want to make the most of this fantastic game.
The only drawback of

Photoshop.
Braid is: puzzles plus humor and complete control of time. All this with an incredible visual appearance, with refined
impressionist graphics, that will dazzle you as soon as you see them. After the launching of
