GenRainpy a Rain Simulator with Python

Python pygame

🌧️ A simple yet immersive rain and thunderstorm simulator built with Python and pygame. The project features dynamic lightning effects, realistic thunder sounds, and procedurally generated rain noise for an atmospheric experience.

✨ Features

  • Lightning Effects: Flashes of light simulating real lightning strikes.
  • Thunder Sounds: Plays random thunder sounds with adjustable volume.
  • Rain Noise: Procedurally generated background rain sounds with smooth transitions.
  • Interactive Controls:
    • Adjust volume for thunder, rain, and raindrop effects.
    • Change storm intensity levels (Low, Medium, High).
    • Toggle fullscreen mode.

🛠️ Installation

  1. Clone the repository:

    git clone https://github.com/azuletto/rain_generator
cd thunderstorm_main

  2. Install the required dependencies:

    pip install pygame numpy sounddevice scipy

  3. Run the application:

    python thunderstorm_simulator.py

🎮 Usage

  • Change Intensity: Use the on-screen menu to switch between Low, Medium, and High intensity levels.
  • Toggle Fullscreen: Press F to enter or exit fullscreen mode.
  • Adjust Volume: Use the interactive modal to fine-tune sound levels.

⚙️ How It Works

  • Visuals:
    • pygame is used to create dynamic flashes representing lightning.
  • Audio:
    • Rain sounds are generated procedurally using numpy and scipy.
    • Thunder sounds are loaded and played randomly.
  • Interactive Menu:
    • Adjustable sound sliders and storm intensity controls implemented with pygame events.
