A pretty visualisation... But there's not much "game" to it. The scene transitions were top notch.

Would love to see where this would go with more game mechanics. What were the constraints you had in mind for a full game? Filling 4 alleys with signs just the right way for some particular job seems to be a promising constraint system to work with.
@monkeydom I didn't have anything in mind for making a 'full game', I just wanted to do something with neon signs!
Nice little game/toy, I didn't expect those transitions running around the block, which are great.
I like the balancing of hard-to-place things in the back, vs. speed of placing in easier, nearer spots but then blocking my chance to place in the back. This is the core of the game I think.
Some feedback on progress could be useful, for a bit I thought it would run forever.
A retrowave track and a global leaderboard to compete with friends seems like the next step for the game.
Simple game, it could benefit a whole lot from more focus on the art side. But was fun overall :smile:
This game is great. It's a fun refreshing take on the theme that left my mouse sore! I actually worked up a sweat playing! You have been awarded Most Physical game for Ludum Dare 42 and will have a permanent link to this page on my main channel page. Congrats! Here is a link to your game on my stream: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/299088812?t=00h16m39s
I really like neon aesthetics. Simple mechanics.
cool graphics, sub par concept. Good work with the concept though
294 signs! Sadly didn't beat that 317 score
Real nice visuals, and the transitions were lovely! Nice use of the theme, and the music was spot on too!
What an odd idea! Has a nice feel to it, although it seems to lack something.
Lovely signs! I included it in my compilation video series of the Ludum Dare 42 compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look. :) https://youtu.be/sgI7Z7NA6tk
