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...
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!
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!
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.
I too never met any rainwalkers, but this is really, really nice. I love the setting and the aesthetics of it.
I love the idea. Though a balance of minimalism would be needed perhaps adding cars with bright lights would keep players to the sidewalks.
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
Interesting idea and great artwork for the mood of the game. Didn't find any rainwalkers though, which is a shame :(
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.
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.
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.
Best one for me so far! I'd love to play a longer game in this style. Exploring a huge city with more variations.
It seems there are problems with web build hosting. Unity loader aborts with 'bad file length' error.
Great atmosphere. We need more games like this. It's a shame that, being multiplayer, I can't test it properly.
It feels so lonely writing alone in the rain. The mood for the game was just great.
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 :(
I really enjoyed playing this. The mood was tremendously amazing. I just wish that I could have met a fellow Rainwalker...
in theory, this could make a good endless forrest-like mmo with no violence.
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.
Rather depressive, and somehow touching. I liked this game session.
i love the idea of this game. and this thrill when you're waiting for another rainwalker.
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. :)
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 !
Hm...interesting. I'm on board with the group that thinks the main character is crazy.

TEAMS: Teams entering the Jam should pick a single representative to submit your game, or create a team specific account you can share. We currently do not support Team Voting, but sharing an account and together playing and rating games is acceptable.
NOT LOGGED IN?: If you get a message about not being logged in, even though you are, it’s because your web browser cached the non-logged in page. You can fix this by either refreshing your cache or clearing your cache. CTRL+F5 in many browsers. Chrome is a bit more work. Press F12 to enable Developer Mode, then you can right click on the refresh button and select “Empty Cache and Hard Reload”. This option is unavailable if you are not in Developer Mode.
PORTS: Ports to other platforms can be done after the deadline. That said, the sooner you finish your port, the sooner people can play your game, improving your chances of placing in the final results. For best results, provide a Web version of your game, or a Windows version with no dependencies. Also be sure to rate about 20 games to improve your visibility.
MY GAME DOESN’T SHOW UP: If you can’t find your game, it’s usually because the URL to your downloads are missing ‘http://‘. Fix your URLs (http://mysite.com/mygame.zip) and you will show up.
MY GAME CRASHES, IS UNBEATABLE, OR I MADE A TYPO: We allow you to fix crash or win condition bugs after the deadline (in a sense, like “porting” to support more players). We also allow “typo” bugs. I.e. A true that should have been a false, a word that should have been a different word, very tiny changes that you would have caught if you had more sleep. We leave this open to interpretation, but generally speaking your game should be identical to the game you submitted. No new features, just things you messed up last minute. Typos.
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)
