About this game Read the full description
It begins with a single drop. Then another. And another. Before long, you're deep in ever-expanding, ever growing chaos, in a deluge of balls, coins, upgrades, buffs, multipliers, and more.
As the ball-o-meters fill, new stages are unlock with scenic pixel art backdrops to set the mood. Collect every cozy, moody theme as you advance through the game.
Fine tune the audio in settings to get the ASMR juuuuuust right. This game is a rain machine, with an atmospheric chiptunes soundtrack to help set the mood.
As the game progresses, you can hone your playstyle with passive or active choices. Rombo the Autobot will do some work for you if you want to step away, or you can invest in combos, GoldCoins, and Disco balls for enhanced multipliers in active play.
Prestige lets you change how you play each run, with continuous rewards as you reach greater milestones. Every rank makes you more powerful, blasting through the early stages and reaching greater heights.
Sit back, hit the "drop" button, and let the chaos begin.
