Or they can draw using some software, or they can import images they find online.

Or they can take pictures of other things, and use those. That’s the quickest easiest way to make a mark. Where do the pictures come from? Let’s let people draw on paper and get them into the game.

But also we want to be expressive, so let’s also allow pictures.

What are the choices made of? Well, you can write text, of course.

Lots of other stuff can be added in a kind of hacky way on top of that. So that’s what Downpour gives you - just choices.

The simplest kind of game is one where you just make choices.

There’s a lot of parts that go into that, but this, and a secondary goal of making it expressive, remained my north star throughout development. The aim when I started working on Downpour was to make a tool that makes making an interactive game-like thing quicker and easier than any other. But also I very sincerely hope they make good things that they wouldn’t’ve made otherwise. I hope people make good things with it! And also, of course, I hope they subscribe and make this retrospectively not a kinda dumb financial decision. I started it after I left Niantic in October 2022, and I have been working on it ever since then (with breaks for illness and freelance work and going on trips and so on). In case you don’t know, Downpour is the game creation tool I have been working on for the past few years.
