Some of you might remember The Witness from the 2013 PlayStation Experience, but not much was said about it since. It’s an independent exploration game from the creator of Braid featuring more than 600 puzzles.
It also features a really gorgeous art style, in case you didn’t notice. I guess pretty much everyone wants such a colorful game as soon as possible, right?
Still no release date, but developer Jonathan Blow posted some updates, he hints that the game is now in its last development phase.
It does *not* mean that the game is done. We still have a lot to do! But it *does* mean that the nature of the work changes and becomes simpler, because we don’t have to be making high-level creative decisions any more. It is now much more about turning the finish-the-game crank (making sure stuff plays well and polishing it up) for anything related to game design, modeling and texturing.
The Witness comes to PC and PS4.
It’s strange that I remember seeing this originally and thinking “That looks interesting.” Now it’s like “I remember seeing that!” Short attention span, what can I say.

Other games get more attention, people forget small announcements, they get lost in the crowd. There are tons of little gems like this coming up, we’ll try to track them down.
