Missed some SFX & background music in my experience
The controls were probably the weakest aspect for me - I wasn't a huge fan of the control scheme in general but the movement was far too responsive for a game that required me to move through a small hole at times. Some wall boundaries were also not very clear at first, which made me miss where I can and can't go.

Gameplay was simple but cool. It would be good if you could better plan were to place the buckets based on were the cloud will go. I see that you already tried that with the arrow pointing to the next location, but it doesn't really work yet (at least for me) Otherwise nice entry!
Very relaxing to play, jumping around feels good, and I like overall vibes.
Needs some rain sounds and maybe some very simple chill music to tie everything together.
I recorded my experience in this video, DropLet is at **38:20**.
