Rain puns!
Just something that looks pretty. If you wait 10 seconds you get different scenes on the TVs. You can hold left and right to alter speed of time passing, press down for forward/reverse.
I like the water dripping off the store front distorting the tvs. And the WEATHER CHANNEL!
I just watched through two whole loops of all the text. What is wrong with me. So entrancing...
A reminder of our blind consumerism, how eager many are to bodily shove others out of their path because of how direly they feel they must have some material possession, a consequence of a reprehensible culture, of the corporations' need to sell, how they do all they can to convince you: Our products are the ones you want, obtain them, do so at any cost, not because they have utility, but because they are there. And knowing this we still watch, voluntarily brainwashed, because the pictures between the commercials make us feel something, anything in a world we've become numb to.
I really like the raindrops on glass effect. Some audio would have made it even better :)
Wait... There ISN'T audio?
... ... W-what is that I'm hearing, then?
Lovely visuals! I included it in my Pico-8 Jam #1 compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look :) https://youtu.be/LE0NF8O7rUM
