Regret. Guilt. Romantic expectation. Braid doesn't just touch upon these things in passing; rather, its narrative and endlessly clever puzzle-platforming exist symbiotically, never taking the intelligence of its players for granted...or making any assumptions about what they may or may not understand. The game rules are simple -- move, jump, and control the flow of time in easily demonstrable ways -- but their applications are anything but. Likewise for the equally challenging story, which is built upon stimulating musings of life, love, and the search for another.

Nice list.
I’ll add 9th Dawn III to that list. Great game made by one person.
Always Sometimes Monster is made by two people technically, but let’s do an honorable mention.
Technically speaking Minecraft should have been on the list. But it's nice to see these single devs thrive.
Theyr is no game made by one man. Theyr is always a team of developers behind them.
However there is always someone who comes up with the idea of a game.
When i would give an example of one man with that idea for me its Hideo Kojima....
Microsoft is offering three additional free games for all Xbox Live Gold subscribers in addition to the regular lineup of games this month.
And still the contradiction of getting something for "free" from a service you pay for continues.

KeenGamer: "Time manipulation concepts have been the foundation of many great games, including these 5 greats which do the them justice. Because every Back to the Future fan needs a bit more time manipulation to fulfil their time traveling fantasies."
Im thankful Quantum Break ended up here! The only thing that stopped this game from being talked up was Xbox exclusivity and the live action scenes being way too long...
Otherwise, it's basically Control with lighter visuals
TimeSpinner is a good time based metroidvania.
Also, Singularity rocks a a time-theme Bioshock-like FPS.
Anything less would be a lie.
Dam I have to wait untill tomorro to DL the full version. Played the trial version and was very impressed and "puzzled", later on I started to figure out how innovative the game is and *low key* yet challaging the gameplay is, having to use brains and skills topping many retail games.
"Braid isn't afraid to make you feel like an idiot with its puzzles"
Very true I was getting worried I would never figure out how to complete World 2, When I finally figured bit by bit out, when the puzzle came to life in the physical world I knew this was a game with a style/innovation/freshness not seen in years.
This game is awesome :) It's a full package as far as style, story, and gameplay. Like green said the worlds have hard puzzle elements to them. The flow of time is no easy thing to master ^.- and the game has a good grasp on how to implement it
