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:
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 is bad. ;) --- So, yes, there is a sequel in the making. I'm not going to post screenshots of the sequel here not to confuse people who are on this hub looking to decide whether or not to buy Sign Motion 1. But you can follow the progress on twitter (http://twitter.com/midnart). There are screenshots and videos there. Cheers!

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 before the first falling car, added another falling car as a warning of what's coming next.
• Level Design: Just before the first gas leak, added another gas leak sign as a warning of what's coming next.
• Bug: On 'Pike' street, Fixed issue that could cause the player to be stuck on the wrong side of the arrow.
