"During the long production period, the tragic earthquake hit Japan in 2011, which was one of the turning points for me and made me decide that “rain” shouldn’t end sadly."
PlayStationer had a chance to learn more about Rain from a Q and A with SCE Japan Studio.
What it feels like to be lost in the dark in the puring rain? Well, PSN exclusive Rain might have an answer for that..
CDW:Occasionally the timing of the puzzles can be frustrating, and waiting for your companion to catch up can be tedious, but overall the gameplay is simple and effective. On occasion it feels as though the gameplay sections are in the way of the rest of the game which is a shame but again it’s not enough to spoil the real enjoyment of Rain. Definitely worth a play for anyone interested in an emotion driven platformer with an atmosphere in keeping with Limbo.
Jarrett from IP writes: "rain succeeds in various ways, but fails in the most important ones. It’s a beautiful narrative, presentation, along with an adoring gloom and darkness, but it’s lazy platforming causes uninspired puzzling, and insipid artificial intelligence. These factors hold rain back from being only slightly better than average."
loved this game and games like it (Limbo) etc, beautiful!
Great interview. Absolutely loved Rain.
He mentions the possibility of Rain coming to the PS4. I'd love to revisit the title on the playstation 4 :D
I want this game. It looks awesome.
