Jonathan Blow’s The Witness is dealing with the user complains of motion sickness from playing the game. Motion sickness is pretty common with first-person games; it’s why most developers allow you to adjust sensitivity settings for your controllers. Usually a fast-paced, first-person shooters are the worst for people who suffer from motion sensitivity. The Witness is essentially a puzzle game, which is something you don’t expect to trigger motion sickness. The complaints about motion sickness quickly piled up on Reddit and one Twitter user shared the thread with Blow.
@mgovier I will at least hack something in pretty soon and we will see how it helps.

Blow and his development team worked on the game for seven years before its release on Jan. 26. The puzzles are meant to challenge the player and might even induce a headache or two.
