Get your feet wet and there’s a dizzying array of buttons, toggles and variables to tune the game to your tastes, plus accessibility options like the ability to slow the entire game down ala Celeste. By default, it rebalances Rain World to be easier to understand (through additional info, tips and tutorials) and a bit less randomly cruel, but it’s fully customizable. Laying the groundwork for Downpour is Rain World Remix, a free upgrade to the original game by More Slugcats’ two lead coders, launching alongside the paid DLC. This collaboration was organized by original developer Videocult, reinvigorated after reclaiming Rain World’s rights from original publisher Adult Swim. Now the work of nearly 40 modders, it’s the central pillar of Downpour. While many mods have been released in the past five years (most found on community hub RainDB), most eagerly awaited was the humbly titled More Slugcats, which started as an attempt to add several new playable critters with interesting abilities but ballooned in scope. Many drew fanart and wrote extensive fiction, building on its story of alien transcendence. More playable creatures, more environments, more art and music. Wanting more, fans picked Rain World apart, produced mod tools and set to work expanding it.
The deep well of lore ran dry, landscapes became overly familiar, and creatures that were once terrifying and majestic became predictable.
