Finally, on 27th July, Blow noted the "whole industry is having a hard time" and then, when asked how many of his development team are working on the compiler for programming language Jai, Blow replied: "None, because we can't afford to pay anyone because the sales are bad."

Oof. I don't like Jon Blow, but I do like Braid. Sad to see nobody really cares about it anymore.
