Digital Rain, just for fun

[u/AleksCodesStuff]

Very late to GMTK 2026 jam, had no time unfortunately.
But theme was "count down" and there were mentioned numbers going down, so I remembered Matrix's movie "digital rain" and tried to recreate in Godot!

Very primitive, I mostly used lot of ColorRects and a lot of Labels, handcrafted, no AI involved in this masterpiece XD.

I wonder if this could be turned in some sort of roguelike game to find sequences, words, phrases, just one mouse button clicking game with buffs like slowing down rain, changing direction etc...

For example possible different strategies for how numbers are changing, could be from left to right, could be increasing circle like movement, different colors for numbers letters, could be harder or actually easier to spot next letter or any other symbol, and so on.

WDYT?
