let-it-rain : rain and snow

One month back, I posted about a very tiny open source app for windows which I created that simulated a kind of ASMR rain effect on desktop.

Lot of people requested for snow simulation and multi-monitor support. Here it is -

The app is built in C++ and DirectX and is super light-weight at only 370KB.

It uses less than 10MB of RAM and about 2-3% CPU on my 6-year-old i5 PC.(DWM process may share some load)

Note: Apart from the aesthetics, this app doesn't serve any functional purpose. I personally use it as a calming distraction while working.

Some browsers may flag the direct exe download since exe is not signed. You can also build the source if you want. Suggest features and report bugs in github page.
