• 1.1 Update is here! - 20 July 2025

  Hey friends! I've got an update with a few new things and some fixes for you! Here's the list: New visual effects when you level up, and a little change when you hit big levels! Look for some cute visual effects whenever you level up, and check out the level change when you hit bigger levels that show different effects.Bug fix: the double-block bug shouldn’t happen anymore, or at least very, very rarelySwap powerup mechanic changes: in Cozy Mode the swap powerups now get filled up by making words instead of by a timer. All other modes: the swap powerups will still fill up over time, but more slowly, but making words will add to them.Some needed sound additionsFix for UI possibly causing some input problems on the letter grid I'm working on the next set of updates -- I know the swap powerup is finicky to use so I'm working on that, but also on some exciting additions that I think people…

• First Update: new background scene! - 11 July 2025

  Hey Wordy Rain players! A few of you jumped on buying my game out of the gate, and I'm so thankful! I've made a first update to the game to fix a couple of issues big and small, and also added a background scene so you have a new one to choose. One of the things I plan to do is regularly add new scenes, themes, sound packs, etc. so this is just dipping a toe in the water of those updates!1.0.1 Changes:New background scene: "Night Birches"New music for "Night Birches" scene when you play in Challenge modeFixed a major scoring bug when you manually spawn new blocks -- it was mathing wrong and jumping you WAY too high a level when you did it. That's been fixed. Other minor fixesHappy playing!
