For those of you who don’t know the developer, his name is Jonathan Blow and some could consider him to be the father of the modern indie game. As part of this announcement he stated that those who preordered the game would receive “the warm fuzzy feeling that you have preordered the game. (And that’s all).” He continued, “So it’s exactly the same as buying the game at launch, except earlier.” His only major work before The Witness was a very popular game called Braid, which took the gaming community by storm when it took of the video game tropes and turned them on their sides. The Witness will be released next week on January 26th for PS4 and PC.
