The pink paw is you. Dodge the raindrops and run right to the exit.
I often think about Raindrop, a tiny arcade-style game made by indie developer Shuhei Miyazawa. It’s such an innovative game – though, in an unpopular genre, it seems to have passed people by. I’m grateful for this opportunity to return to it, and bring this cat-in-the-rain saga to more people’s attentions.
The gist is that you’re a cat, and you’re trying to cross the street in torrential rain. Dodge the raindrops as they fall and collect as many stars as you can, for a bonus. Every time you reach the exit your score is banked. Do you rush repeatedly to each exit until you’re finally hit by a raindrop? Or do you linger in each stage, dodging rain and catching stars to increase your combos?
