For my final coding sounds. I wanted to add a tune that played when the rain drops hit the ground, creating a soft calm sound that was nice to hear. I originally thought that piano keys would work but it was too harsh and became annoying when activated. So I went for a more demure instrument and decided that the harp would be well suited. It is very hard to find someone that owns a harp so I found an online harp and recored each note on my phone and then converted them to wav. files on my computer.
improvements for over holidays:
To improve my interactive game i would like to be able to get one cloud to rain and i clicked and let go but when I let go the cloud stayed in that position so I could form multiple rain clouds. This would effective because at the end of it I would be able to create a whole 'sky' full of rain clouds and maybe a special key could clear the sky and you could start again. Also if you just wanted one cloud raining consistently then another key could be pressed to put you in that mode. this is a complication that I think would be quite effective but very difficult and with my skill and experience level on processing I'm not sure this would be achievable with no help over the holidays, although would be an interesting experiment to try. 
Even if this idea doesn't work out I would still learn quite a lot on the way therefore broadening my knowledge which will help me with later projects.
