Spectacular. Magnificent. Breathtaking. These are the words best used to describe video game tycoon Jonathan Blow, the well-proportioned underdog from California who in 2008, decided to break away from the herd and take up arms against the corporations.
Braid was his declaration of war. The game begins with literal hellfire raining down, the collapse of archaic power structures in the video game industry, the advent of this new dawn of indie; crowned by none other than the man himself... Jonathan.
Jon-a-than. Ah. Even his name has that melodic quality so often associated with the poets. Jonathan. Jonathan Blow, the creator of Braid.
Jonathan is retired yet he hasn't lost neither his spark nor his lustre for life as he offers lamentations and contemplations on life to his legions of fans every night on twitch.
My goal is to take these little snippets of wisdom and, by any means necessary, redistribute them to the world.
I make no money. I take no pride. This is just my purpose.
