Braid - Xbox Live Arcade Hints
World 1
In the level select area (the house), there is a broken ladder that leads to the attic. Find all 60 puzzle pieces and assemble each worlds jigsaw puzzle to fix the ladder.
If you climb into the attic you will enter World 1. If you beat World 1 you will be taken to the epilogue, which you can return to anytime by walking left from the title screen.

In the second to last room of the Epilogue, the room just before the castle, jump from the platform to the center of the bridge. A sound will play to confirm you've done this correctly and a new journal entry will appear.

Secret Star
If you collect all seven of the stars the secret eighth star will appear in the last level. Some of the switches in the last level will become immune to time manipulation, allowing you to reach the star as well as changing the outcome of the race.

Braid - Xbox Live Arcade Easter Eggs
Hidden Texts in Epilogue
Each room in the Epilogue, except the last one, has at least one object you can stand behind. If you have the red book on the object screen open and the text is displayed, standing behind these objects will cause a sound to play and the text to change. If you open a green book, the red book will close and the text will disappear, so you will need to manipulate time to see all four secret writings.
