I’ve always thought Braid was a Boy and His Blob ripoff. Shame on you.

I thought the same thing. They must have taken inspiration from Braid for the graphics.

Of course A Boy and His Blob is a Braid rip-off! Braid doesn’t function in time the way other games do. A Boy and His Blob were ripping off Braid before Braid even existed.

Wow! They’re remaking Boy and his Blob!? I loved that game as a kid, despite the obvious handling issues.
