Rain on Your Parade more or less delivers on what it promises. And the costumes you can unlock for this jerk cloud are absolutely adorable. The developers might have overused the screen-blur effect, but each one of these stages is quite lovely and I can tell there was a lot of consideration put into the layout and design of each one. It’s simply a fun game with genuinely amusing dialog and art direction that is very pleasing to look at. Most of my time spent with Rain on Your Parade with filled with absolute joy. Thankfully, those levels are few and far between. And while I know it’s a challenge to come up with 50 completely different puzzle ideas, I’d wager one or two of these stages were designed around getting attention on social media rather than creating a unique and interesting challenge. Zombies tower-defense level and one themed around The Legend of Zelda, were probably good ideas on paper but are long and dull in execution. Unfortunately, so do those stages that really miss the mark. When these levels and themes hit just right, they stand out. There’s even a separate mini-game modeled after Doom with first-person shooter controls and all.

Several stages here reference pop culture to great effect, such as a level inspired by Silent Hill and another that presents a series of challenges based on the American Office.

One level will propose you soak a bunch of children until they run scared across the school, while the next will challenge you to free a little green alien trapped in a quiet mountain town. And nobody is spared from this cloud’s wrath. Across 50 stages, players will use the cloud’s four abilities - rain, tornado, snow, and lightning - to wreak havoc on the people below. I have to hand it to the developer for getting just about the most out of the premise as it could. Most stages shouldn’t give players too much trouble, however, as the real trying tasks aren’t unlocked until you gain access to New Game+. Depending on the level, you might have to retry the challenge if you run out of liquid. If you find some oil, you can burn this mother to the ground. Soak up some acid and you can corrode vehicles with it. There are actually several different liquids players can utilize in their puzzle solving. Use it to soak people, to water gardens, to extinguish campfires, and more. The cloud’s principal ability is that of rain. To get there, he’ll travel across a few dozen stages completing challenges and unlocking new abilities. Set to the backdrop of a grandfather’s bedtime story to his grandson, the game puts players into control of a cloud looking for a mythical land known as Seattle.

Rain on Your Parade has a simple ask for players: be the jerkiest jerk cloud you can possibly be. Rain on Your Parade (PC, Switch, Xbox One) Especially a jerk cloud, like the one in Rain on Your Parade. While I guess I should be thankful to reside somewhere that’s bright and sunny nearly every day of the year, I could sure go for some clouds right about now.

Water conservation may have to make a comeback in 2021 as our snowpack is below the yearly average, and I honestly can’t remember the last time it rained where I live. Millions of California residents like myself are bracing for what could be a very dry year for our state.
