I think you need to take each level of Braid independently. There really can't be any coherent story that connects to all of the worlds.

From what I understand, the inconsistency of the world
is the connecting theme. It's about the pervading nature of human subjectivity. Or something.
:
There’s some level where you could say Braid is about Time. But at a deeper level it’s about going into world after world, with a rule set that’s different. Like, the laws of the universe are different in every world. It happens to be Time that changes a little bit.
It’s about looking at and understanding those new rules and those differences and doing things that you couldn’t do before, that maybe looked before looked impossible. You could make a statement about what Braid is about that doesn’t even have the word "Time" in it.
