aw, cute, reminds me of summer rains
this is really nice! I had a similar moment when we had a rainstorm a week or two ago :)
Thank you! The first rain after summer heat always makes me happy
It just started thundering outside while I was playing this. :) Gorgeous, I love the low rumbling sub-bass of the rain, very atmospheric!
Oooh, what a wonderful synchronicity!
I'm glad you like the soundscape, I went through several public domain rain sounds to find one that was just right.
I probably am just not looking hard enough but I can't get it to work. I hit "Run Rainfall," then it just shows "A Welcome Shower" without changing, no matter where I click.
Weird. I just tried it and it works for me. Clicking anywhere within the boundary of the embedded game window should "activate" the game, then pressing any arrow key starts.
ah I see. I wasn't aware i needed to click one of the arrows. I probably just missed it! Thank you!
No problem! I'll edit the game descrip to make that clearer. I play so many Bitsy games that I'm used to it, but I forget that not everyone is.
Oh this is nice. Great rain (art and sound), and I loved the mood. Moods plural, actually.
Thank you so much! I'm a huge fan 😍
