Ahhh, mountain thunderstorms <3 this is very cool!

They're really something else! Thank you for playing!

wow really enjoyed this - the sound triggering was so good!! loved the color palette change with the lightning as well! :)

Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it :)

WOW! Short, but striking! (Heh) The sound triggering along with the poem works so well! Love this!

Thank you, I'm glad you think it worked!

Spooky!

I hadn't thought of it that way, but storms can be spooky, can't they!

wow beautiful, great use of sound!

Thanks so much, it was my first time attempting to use sound with bitsy!

Great poem! I liked the movement of the items with each line and the effect of the flashing lighting with the palette change.

Thank you! I'm really happy with how it turned out :)
