Flash Warning

Lightning when enabled delivers some punchy flashes, just like real life. Lightning is off by default for safety reasons.

Config

You can change most things; wind speed, thickness of droplets, dithering (falling sway), colour, speed of falling etc.

It should pause when you go inside.

Recent Activity & Future Plans

  • More depth has been given to droplets
  • Snow sound effects!
  • Lightning & Thunder have been split
  • The repo is alive again
  • in-game location matching is being considered, eg. Barbarian Village should be rainy.
