Sign Motion

Every bit as fun as stappling your foreskin to your eyelids

I'm not quite sure how I feel about this game yet. It feels like it is still in early access, and can use some work, but theres a lot of potential. As a full game though as it is right now, I would not recommend it. The controls seem slightly delayed, and are sloppy. Jumping is a huge issue, as well as running. You tap slightly to make your character move and NOT fall off, and your charater doesnt move. So you hold down for slightly longer, and your character goes flying off the sign. I've died so many times because I hit spacebar to jump and because of the delay, the character doesnt jump, just runs straight off the sign. It is very frusturating and unrewarding. You have no control over your jump, once you jump your charatcter will jump at whatever speed you were running at, and you have no control of the jump while in the air. So quite often you'll jump from a sign right into the abyss. The idea of the game in general is very creative, but as a platformer, there are much more polis...

Not worth $10 * Uninspired platforming gameplay * Jumping/running controls handle like a shopping cart, straight up ignores jump inputs / keeps moving forward after letting go * Continually makes you repeat the same boring platforming sections if you mess up (which you will mainly due to aforementioned rancid platforming. * Graphics/audio are meh Summary: if you want a decent 2D platformer gameplay go play one of the mario / sonic's, not this. If you want quirky indie platforming/puzzle solving, go play braid or limbo, not this. Keep away.

Nice little platformer. I reviewed this game a while ago, and gave it a negative review – based on its original controls, which made the game unplayable for me. A few days ago, the developer Midnart contacted me, informing me that the game has been patched, including the controls. So I gave it a second chance – and I am glad I did. The game is now controlled smoothly and after beating it (which took me, I do not know, 2 – 3 hours maybe? ) I can see its other positives: - Good atmosphere – from tense moments like running from poisonous gas, through adrenaline riding moments to overall melancholic feeling of the game (loved the end – no one left behind :) ) - Fine music fitting the game - Clever puzzles – some of the puzzles seemed frustrating at first, but once you realize the principle of solving them, you will feel a sense of accomplishment (at least I did) – the puzzles are based mostly on perceiving the physics of the environment and interaction with it - Stylish graph...

It's a great game, but it needs a few improvements: -A save/load/level select system -Better physics (sometimes my character got stuck on a ramp and I had to jump repeatedly to move at all) -Customizable controls -A bit more checkpoints -More sound I would recommend this to anyone looking for a great game, but I'm also hoping that an update will be released for it to fix a few things.

The idea is excellent but the attempt at trying to implement real world physics to the characters animation and movement, resorts in very poor control response. Shame really this could have been a great game but with the rather inadequate feel of the characters con trol can't give it more than a 5/10.

You play as a stick figure, either male or female (changed in settings), that traverses across of signs from throughout the world. The signs in the game provide clues as to what puzzles or challenges you will face, ranging from sliding cars to falling rocks, explosive crates, and poisonous gas that chases through through a large portion of the game. Your progress is saved after each major puzzle or challenge and, if you 'die,' you restart at the most recent save point, ready to begin the challenge again. Although the game is not overly hard, it provi...

horrible

I came to this game at the recommendation of a friend, who knew I enjoyed puzzles. I typically like games like World of Goo, Diner Dash, and other casual games but when I saw the preview, I was intrigued. It was the most unique game I'd seen. So I played it and like many people, got frustrated. A lot. But then, I'd figure out the puzzle and what I needed to do and had a great feeling of achievement. This is a game where you have to think and it feels good to exercise those mental muscles! I'm enjoying playing it.

Sign Motion Is a great little puzzle platformer that in my view deserves more credit than what it has gotten in the overall reviews. Sure the handling is somewhat frustrating from time to time but the overall experience is still really great and the design of the game is pretty remarkable with an otherwise dead world of signs and figures comming alive. The soundtrack of this game is also really great and fitted the game very well. The game is rather short and its fairly easy for the most of the parts. I will rate this game 8/10
