Single player is vs Ai only no campaign mode, so I will be giving this one a miss. :-(

Well me and Rusty have been talking it over (don't worry it hasn't been forgotten) been a bit unsure as of what to do since there was only 2 people who actually entered, out of those two you are the winner anyway.
PM me once you decide what you would like to receive and i will sort it out for you.
Consider this competition a well overdue closed!

I haven't as i prefer a single player game, although there is a demo available on the website I may check it out to see if there is any campaign mode at all, afterall $7.50 - 4 quid ish it's worth at least checking out.

Well, they have reached over $1 Million USD now. Also, Braid got an update today:
Changes since original build:
- Added support for systems without S3TC support.
- Added support for PowerPC and 64-bit Intel Macs.
- Added support for amd64 Linux systems.
- Possibly fixed never-ending black screen that some Mac players experienced.
- Now attempts to choose correct language at startup, if a translation is available, on both Mac and Linux.
- Added notes on useful command line options to Linux README.
Notice anything in particular there? :D

Here you are folks, straight from the horses mouth:
QuoteMost people that are hitting this have s3tc support disabled in their video drivers, which means they can't run most modern video games. Use driconf to turn it on, I've been told.
Most of the other problems seem to be video drivers that fail on Braid's shaders. I think we'll shake these issues out over time, but I suppose the bulk of that work falls on the backs of the driver teams.
I don't know what anything but Braid is doing for installation, but I just installed it to "/home/icculus/Braid With Spaces" and it installed, ran, and uninstalled just fine.
If you're having an install failure with MojoSetup, though, please email me and we'll figure out what's going wrong: [email protected]

I see no reason why Braid would need to use S3TC, it is just a 2D platform game after all. For those of you who do not know the history, that particular patent on S3TC texture compression has been a thorn in the side of the free graphics developers for years. Hopefully the developer will smarten up and switch to something a bit more free, or maybe Ryan could make an alternative just for the Linux port. Though it is somewhat ironic that I am evangelizing a change for the benefit of the free drivers while writing from my Fedora 14 system running Catalyst 10.12... :p
Still, what GPU are you currently using then Rusty, still stuck on an Intel?

Thank you Scott! I just want to confirm that this was indeed the issue. I've
enabled the option in driconf and now Braid runs flawlessly. I've given this
solution to others in ubuntu forums and blogged about it (giving you credit for
the solution) so it doesn't get burried here.
I hope they will eventually release an update that uses an alternate
compression for the textures instead of this patented algorithm.
