Rain On Your Parade is an extremely silly game featuring tons of mini-levels. The player must complete the main objective in each level to continue, but there are also many side objectives and even secret ones to complete. This is a game that celebrates games (and other media) with levels that are entirely designed in direct reference to them or in smaller ways such as dialogue or easter eggs.
If you enjoy games like WarioWare, then you'll definitely like this one. It's great to play in small bursts which made it perfect for playing before bed on the Steam Deck.
I had a lot of fun playing Rain on Your Parade. The concept of ruining everyone's good time by raining inclement weather down on them might sound mean-spirited, but the execution here is completely silly and wholesome: You're a corrugated cardboard cloud held up by visible strings, the people are little wool figures, you're trying to save the day by building up your weather powers. The fourth wall gets broken, classic games are parodied, plenty of hijinks ensue.
If you enjoy the lighthearted destruction of Katamari Damacy, the objectives of Untitled Goose Game or the unpredictability of What the Golf's levels, I'd give this one a look.
Rain on your Parade is a game in wich the objective is to rain/snow/make a storm on the poor people who are below you.
The game is divided in stages. Each one with a main objective and a secundary one. There is also hidden objectives so be careful and try to do various thing in each stage, you may end up triggering some hidden objective.
Nothing to fancy, nothing too hard. It has a really short duration, about 3 to 4 hours, so you can beat it in one sitting.
Overall, I woul recommend this game, it has some unique things that are really nice.
Very simple yet entertaining gameplay with the most basic of ideas at it's core (you're a cloud and you do cloud things) stretched to lenghts far beyond what you'ld expect and frosted with videogame references. It's perfect for resting during the weekend while leaving your brain in battery saving mode: it's cheap, charming and short. There's also a DLC that adds some more levels which i'ld reccomend getting since the quality of the levels is about the same as the main content, but single best level is in the DLC and the game is very short without it anyway.
finished on pc, not done the ng+ for now . . .
I'm not done with this but it's an easy 10/10. Perfect cloud boi, perfect destructive gameplay.
I'm exaggerating, but it's honestly great. There are some references and parodies of other games (Frogger, Metal Gear), the objectives for each level are ridiculous (blow up a science kit, chase all of the art class kids down the hall, blow out all of the street lights but don't soak any of the kids, etc.), and the controls are simple. The fact that you can draw a face on Cloudy and give him hats and accessories is a great bonus.
I sent a trailer to my bestie when it released. She doesn't play a whole lot of games but does have a Switch, and this is the chaotic ridiculousness that our friend group loved in high school. She bought it immediately, haha.
Picked up last night from the eShop, but haven't tried it out yet.
This looks like exactly my kind of chaos.
