Braid I am absolutely sure computer games are fantastic things not only because they can provide entertainment, but because they are made with a lot of creativity and rigour. I am not talking about any game as them done by big companies in a specific purpose; obviously, money. On the contrary, games made by “indie” companies are usually high quality in creativity terms. One of this games I trying to talk about is “Braid”, launched to market in 2009. As you can see, Braid is a 2D game similar to the classical Mario Bros.

One of these days we visited the house, I surprisingly appeared with a camera and scared them. Then, quickly I said them to pose to the camera with their weirdest faces. That is the result. I really like this photo because it is totally funny and because makes me remember that holiday. I do not live with my father and brother, so we have not many memories together and that summer was great, full of funny moments that I think we could never forget. And if we forget something, here will be this photo to remember us.
