Excellent mood and (theoretically) interesting concept... but I wasn't able to meet any other rainwalker whatever I tried... i tried to leave marks on two places distant to each other and write messages there, going around... never met anyone, never seen any other sign, got bored... after two tries I quit (BTW some button on the game session terminated to restart would be nice)

Really like the concept and the art style. Great job! :)

fuzzywuzzie 2013-04-29 17:39

The art and mood in this game is breathtaking! Couldn't find any other rainwalkers unfortunately :s

No rainwalkers here either. Kept looking for them but nothing. What a beautiful city and atmosphere.

Is there any chance for a linux build? Unity Web Player won't work here...

nodoxi 2013-04-29 19:36

I just saw someone leaves marks near me!
We said "Hello", then "Rain" and phone rang!
Game said that I never met any rainwalker, but I khow: it was him!

nuprahtor 2013-04-29 19:41

Added linux build. I can't test it, but it should work.

sheep 2013-04-29 21:44

A very cool idea -- if it is, as I assume, a multiplayer game. Shame that I didn't meet anybody in there. Extremely moody. The linux build indeed works fine, thank you!

I impressed with architecture and mood.
Really good =)

Wonderful tone throughout the entire game. I really enjoyed the setting and the story, while i didn't see any rainwalkers, the mere concept of their existence intrigued me throughout my time playing. Wonderful Job.

I was thinking - would the rainwalker look like me? What do I look like? I was expecting to see No Face from Spirited Away peering round one of those corners. Loved it, no rainwalkers met.

Amazing atmosphere and mood, good job.

I too never met any rainwalkers, but this is really, really nice. I love the setting and the aesthetics of it.

keyboardthrashingfactory 2013-04-30 11:20

I love the idea. Though a balance of minimalism would be needed perhaps adding cars with bright lights would keep players to the sidewalks.

dvdking 2013-04-30 11:24

I guess those rainwalkers are just myth. Or main character is crazy and thinks he's not alone. It was great! Even though gameplay is primitive, but having feeling that at some moment you are going to meet one of rainwalkers is very intriguing

antonijn 2013-04-30 11:26

Interesting idea and great artwork for the mood of the game. Didn't find any rainwalkers though, which is a shame :(

edocentrique 2013-04-30 11:37

Very great mood !

Failed to download data file :(

pierrec 2013-04-30 14:38

I feel I already played that game of yours...twice ^^
These graphics were use in one of your previous game, right ?
And I suppose the concept is quite the same than Composition 37's one ?
Anyway, Great mood as always, and still a great concept if I'm not wrong.

nuprahtor 2013-04-30 14:56

I used concept of indirect interaction between the players. It also uses some code, graphic and sound assets from my other games, but the overall concept is quite different.

alvivar 2013-04-30 17:14

i found a million of rainwalkers, maybe. beautiful game.

You've created a beautiful virtual place. Great stuff! At the first text wall I was a bit confused and only after I have read the instructions here, I learned that it should have clicked ther right mouse button. That was confusing.

I too didn't meet any rainwalkers.

dookie 2013-04-30 19:31

Best one for me so far! I'd love to play a longer game in this style. Exploring a huge city with more variations.

r3d5 2013-04-30 20:16

no rainwalkers, but cool vibe!

degtyarev 2013-04-30 23:53

It seems there are problems with web build hosting. Unity loader aborts with 'bad file length' error.

jorjon 2013-05-01 00:22

Great atmosphere. We need more games like this. It's a shame that, being multiplayer, I can't test it properly.

dohan 2013-05-01 17:37

It feels so lonely writing alone in the rain. The mood for the game was just great.

ragzouken 2013-05-02 22:55

Really beautiful. I had my volume too low at first and was mortified there was no rain sounds, but they were there after all. Really lovely mood. I saw no rainwalkers though :(

kevinzuhn 2013-05-03 01:59

I'm beginning to doubt that there are any rainwalkers atall!

miharbi 2013-05-03 11:41

Beautiful game

studioarmix 2013-05-03 15:13

I really enjoyed playing this. The mood was tremendously amazing. I just wish that I could have met a fellow Rainwalker...

jod 2013-05-05 13:20

Great mood. Sadly, I didn't meet any Rainwalkers.

samoojamies 2013-05-05 15:43

forever rainwalker

kibertoad 2013-05-05 17:08

in theory, this could make a good endless forrest-like mmo with no violence.

misaelk 2013-05-05 20:32

Such a magical experience! Marvelous work.

I communicated several times with another rainwalker. I never once saw him or her. But we were there, together, under the rain. Walking, and leaving our oh so temporary marks.

realyuniquename 2013-05-05 20:35

Is there a way to meet rainwalkers?

hd408 2013-05-06 00:44

Rather depressive, and somehow touching. I liked this game session.

areskye 2013-05-06 15:57

i love the idea of this game. and this thrill when you're waiting for another rainwalker.

minionstudios 2013-05-08 04:00

Excellent game, so moody! I love it!

dr_soda 2013-05-09 07:55

I'm guessing that there really aren't any Rainwalkers at all, and the player is just crazy. :) I scribbled quite a lot and never found anything, and that was after just wandering around trying to find already existing scribbles.

I kept thinking that vague mist-like formations in the distance had to be Rainwalkers, but then had to conclude it was just fog effects.

Really great mood though, with wonderful graphics and a great take on the theme. :)

lotusgame 2013-05-13 13:44

A strange game with a very good atmosphere. I didn't find any rainwalkers.. but i wonder if it is in fact a multiplayer game with no player around and that's why i didn't find them. So mysterious !

snoringfrog 2013-05-14 06:09

Hm...interesting. I'm on board with the group that thinks the main character is crazy.
