I'm that weird player who doesn't care about progress, I just like catching drops of water. It brings peace. This is a beautiful, calming game. Thanks for this.

I liked this game overall, it was pretty neat.  Although to be honest I will say that the early game and end game (storm with a pool) both seem considerably stronger than the mid-game... maybe the gameplay loop doesn't hold up long enough, but I was losing interest after about the halfway point. I think the upgrades themselves don't really change enough or do enough, and there is quite a few levels to wait for.  The weather effects were cool though and definitely helped keep things more interesting.

To my untrained eye, The pixel art was nice. I quite liked the music too, though it ended up being a bit loud after a while and I didn't see any option to turn it down in the game. The UI was pretty good but could do with a few improvements (I also didn't realize about the 'Auto' tab until quite a few minutes in hah). I do think it was an enjoyable little game

Not really on theme, but for what it is, it works pretty well. I found the highlight over the buttons a bit confusing as I thought it initially meant "new thing available" rather than "currently selected" (movement of any kind is very eye-catching). Others have mentioned the art style not meshing very well, but this is quite common when using AI art, and that's how most of the art comes across to me. (Apologies if it *is* handmade, but you didn't specify what AI assistance you used and that's just how the art makes me feel) It took me a while to realise "auto" was clickable, even with it being yellow now, I thought it was just a heading for that entire section until I clicked on it by accident. If it looked like the other buttons and was in the same row, I may not have made that mistake.

But good job with it overall, and be careful updating it until the rating period is over. You could consider the updates you did recently to be bug fixes, but you don't want to get disqualified for trying to make the game better!

Doesn't really fit the theme, balance was good until i got storm
fun game and good atmosphere though
