It was most excellent. Between Braid and Portal, is this the start of a short-form game renaissance?

Signed. Favorite game so far this year, including retail. I shamefully admit to looking up the solution for ONE of the puzzle pieces... and it was in World 2, of all places! haha. Such a satisfying feeling to nail a puzzle after half an hour of trial and error though.

I just beat it a few minutes ago. I FEEL SO INTELLIGENT.

#11 Posted by LeBart (303 posts) - 4 years, 9 months ago

I feel so stupid for giving up on one puzzle piece and looking up for the solution ! And it was easy ! Now I feel like I didn't really beat the game !

#12 Posted by hendersonman (161 posts) - 4 years, 9 months ago

I can't believe  finished this game in less than one day. I could not stop playing. I just wanted to see the end and what the story was all about. I finished it all and I still do not know.

That game is... not about what I thought it was when I started.

The last level blew my mind, can't wait to do some speed runs, and start trying to figure out what actually happened.

I still need to collect some certain shiny, pointy things, but I have an idea where some are. I love that even though I finished it, I still find new stuff. Like the additional text for the red books in the Epilogue. Fantastic game. Played it from 8 pm when I bought it, straight through 4 am. It's just so beautiful, sometimes I would just stand still and look at it, soak it all in.

#16 Posted by KBake (13 posts) - 4 years, 9 months ago

This game is amazing!! I loved it and feel proud that I beat it without looking at a walk-through once. Makes the whole game that much more satisfying! Worth every point in my opinion!

#17 Posted by Nefilim (26 posts) - 4 years, 9 months ago

Some of the puzzles took me hours to figure out, but when I look back at them, they seem so simple.

Shit, this game is good. Imagine if it was as long as a real Mario game. That would be EPIC.

#27 Posted by RobDaFunk (329 posts) - 4 years, 9 months ago

Finished it 3 times in 2 days......amazing, simply Amazing.  Didn't get the ending the first time, going back through it made much more sense.

Gonna start the Full Game speed run next.

Finished it last night. It's really short (I think I spent about 3 hours with it) but very well done. The puzzles where so damned good that I refused to seek help in doing them. What feels really great about the puzzles is that they aren't like Portal (which I also loved), where it was as much about reflexes as thinking out the right solution. They're all about using your mind, which makes trying to figure them out infinately less frustrating. Every time that I found myself being pixels away from making the jump, or escaping without dying, I was doing it wrong. The game makes you step back and take a look at your faulty solution to find a real one (which plays brilliantly into some of the game's themes).

Anyhow, awesome game. As short as it is for $15, it's so damned good that it feels like a steal. The puzzles are brilliant, the licensed soundtrack is an amazing collection of works that I would have never listened to on my own, the art is fantastic (I'm not too keen on Tim and the enemies, but the levels and backgrounds are pure beauty), and the story had me laying in bed thinking about what it all means after I finished chapter 6. I just wish I cared to play the time trials....maybe I'll come back to them at some point.

Amazing game.

8/8 Stars? What's that all about? The constellation outside of your house? I think I have 8 stars out there (gotta go check) but I have no idea how they got there.

i did the same earlier......i have no stars at present but I'm glad I now i have another excuse to go back through it again!! ;)

you can youtube it, but it might ruin the surprise.....how ppl found them without help is amazing tho. :|

See.....I have this constellation of 8 stars outside of Tim's house. But I didn't go out and collect any stars. Does the constellation fill in in another way when you get them? I guess I'm off to hunt for hidden stars, then......

"
yep, 8 stars to get but WELL hidden.....i only looked at a tube vid for a min or so, so only know how to get a few of em at the moment.

still don't know what you get for getting them tho??
#37 Posted by nutter (96 posts) - 4 years, 9 months ago

Ahh, the stars fill in the constellation...I thought I somehow got them without realizing it.....well this sounds like several hours of funstration :P

#38 Posted by ArchScabby (5809 posts) - 4 years, 9 months ago

I beat it, I never thought a game off xbla could have such an awsome and emotional story.

#39 Posted by masterfaculty (87 posts) - 4 years, 9 months ago

beat it today. last night i was up until 1 trying to figure out how to get the my last two puzzle pieces in world 6 (piece #2 in "elevator action" and the piece behind the locked door where that damn cannon continually shoots fireballs...can't recall the level name right now). i had a really strong desire to check youtube, but i eventually decided to sleep on it. my dog woke me up and wanted to go outside at 4am, at which point i had a cigarette and an epiphany for both puzzles. so glad i didn't cheat.

this is easily my favorite game released this year, maybe in the last couple years. so satisfying, and the end blew me away.

#40 Posted by mikevanpwn (401 posts) - 4 years, 9 months ago

I finished it last night.  Awesome game, I'm going to do some of the speed runs as well.

#46 Posted by Rapt0ria (8 posts) - 4 years, 9 months ago

Beat it 1 week ago. Beat it with 8 stars 1 day ago.

Bring on BRAID 2.

This is the FIRST TIME I felt like I have earned  REAL ACHIEVEMENTS on Xbox 360

#47 Posted by DerBonk (94 posts) - 4 years, 9 months ago

You are absolutely right, Rapt0ria. I was surprised to find me playing a single-player game for things that do not give me achievement points, like the stars. And I enjoyed it and every time I got a star, it felt like a bigger achievement, than all the things I did for most of my gamerscore.
