The clouds and cities were adorable, and I don't call cities adorable often. That said, I thought the game was really unforgiving. I found myself just wandering around waiting for good clouds because I \/could not\/ rain on cities without a wall of bad clouds getting in the way. It would be nice if the lakes restored your water supply on their own, just by hovering over them, instead of having to wait for the nice clouds."},{"author_name":"Photon","author_uid":"7658","time":"Apr 23, 2015 @ 2:41am","epoch":1429756560,"text":"Excellent entry.

This would require a wind direction indicator though, so that planning where to go next was still possible.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Some of the pink clouds could spawn outside of the screen at a random interval, as currently there are very few of them and most of the time they are blocked by pollution and\/or get pushed outside the area by the wind very fast.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>It's a tad odd that while you have a functioning health bar the game also ends automatically when the pollution's gotten too severe. This is not communicated in anyway and comes as a total surprise before figuring out the magic number that the city pollution should't go beyond.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>I would rather have the overall pollution have a periodic effect on health meaning that the player could easilly see how close they are to their doom, based on the cloud size and their health bar."},{"author_name":"MegaPonies","author_uid":"50447","time":"Apr 23, 2015 @ 11:52am","epoch":1429789620,"text":"I really liked how the music merged with the sound of the factories :)"},{"author_name":"pinkmonkeyhead","author_uid":"11711","time":"Apr 23, 2015 @ 2:26pm","epoch":1429798860,"text":"Really cute graphics.
