A very nice game! I was glad to have found your comment that you can indeed get home. That kept me playing. Maybe adding it to the game would improve it, ex.: when you loose the game, it could say how far from home were you. Making an easier restart, skip intro (or omit the intro at all, as you're under the school roof, the game could start by you walking out of the roof). In the last screen, it would be nice to still see the end goal - home - which you achieved. At first I thought it was an endless game, then I had an idea that maybe by doing something difficult - making a fire or something like it - could get you dry a bit, to allow to keep you going, but I guess this does not make sense when it has an end. It's also more motivating when you have an end goal.  I also loved that the game had some increase in difficulty and mechanics which allowed me to get better in game over multiple tries. Great work, keep up!

Fun game! Do you ever get home? :)

Thanks!
Yeah, It takes just over 2 minutes if you were to run straight there without reaching 100% wetness or falling in a river.

Nice game. I like when the wind gets stronger as I go further to slightly affect rain drop direction to increase difficulty. Makes me feel I'm approaching the storm. But... I am the storm that is approaching.

I loved this one. The crouch animation made me laugh and I just had to keep playing it.
