- Update 7 - Remastered Edition - 25 February 2016
Sign Motion just got remastered with a ton of visual enhancements and other updates. That includes post-processing shaders, animations and more. Most notably the boy got a backpack and a cap which helps to indicate the direction he is facing, the girl got hair animation guided by physics simulation, they got a more fun walking animation, some new particle effects here and there, better navigation controls on the level selection screen and more. Here is a comparison shot: http://media.indiedb.com/cache/images/games/1/33/32620/thumb_620x2000/Remaster_-_Comparison.png How come? Well, I've been developing a lot of new shaders, tools and effects for the sequel of Sign Motion. So I decided to port some of those enhancements to the original Sign Motion 'cause I figured you wouldn't mind a shiny new remastered edition. Unless, of course, we're talking about Star Wars, in which case remastering…

- Update - 6 - 4 December 2014
Another one in a series of updates to address feedback and suggestions from the community. What Changed: Hint System: Added a hint system that can provide up to three visual clues on certain puzzles. Pops up with H on the keyboard or X on a Xbox controller. Controls: Hitting the jump button near round corners registers better. Controls: Now it's possible to jump again just as the character is landing instead of when the character had fully landed. Rope: Contact point was off and could cause the character to grab on a rope a little higher than where it actually touched it. Rope: New climbing animation. Physics: Fixed issue where a few ramps and ropes could launch the character too high due to wrong momentum. Level Design: Just before the first rope, added two new ropes to help the player get familiar with the rope controls and mechanics of swinging back and forth. Level Design: Just befo…
