Braid coming to PSN this November

Hothead Games has announced that it will be bringing Jonathan Blow’s popular puzzle platformer Braid to the PlayStation Network. Braid will be available on the North American PlayStation Store on the 12th of November, while a European date is promised shortly.

Braid allows players to manipulate time as hero Tim, journeying through a series of different worlds, solving puzzles along the way on a quest to save the princess. Tim has the power to affect time in a different way in each world, including the ability to rewind, create parallel universes and make use of time dilation to overcome obstacles.

Although you can’t die or lose in Braid, the game promises to challenge players as they search for puzzle pieces and solve puzzles by manipulating time in the non-linear story.

Braid debuted on Xbox Live Arcade back in 2008, and earlier in the year Hothead and Blow teamed up to bring the game to the Mac. El33tonline gave the thumbs-up to the Xbox 360 version of Braid, saying that “Once in a while a game comes along that just bends your mind in ways you didn’t know it could bend, changing, in some small way, the way you think forever.”

Incidentally Blow is currently working on his next game, The Witness, an exploration-puzzle game that will be released on multiple platforms in late 2011.
