Braid will not start

[ARTIFACTARTIFACT]

Whenever I attempt to start Braid I get a message to the effect of "Braid cannot boot up! Make sure you are attempting to load it from steam! If you don't this version will not play!" Yet I am starting it from steam. I have restarted steam and reinstalled Braid yet the error persists.

Anybody have an advice on how to fix. In advance, thanks to those who respond.
