Dearraindrop

Dearraindrop is an artist collective based in Virginia Beach, Virginia.[1][2][3][4] Dearraindrop incorporates diverse disciplines that work together to create multifaceted sculptures and installations. Part of the collective's operating philosophy is modeled on the idea that our greatest human capability is the ability to work together to achieve a greater goal. DEARRAINDROP's work incorporates painting, collage, video, large-scale, interactive installation pieces, and hand-fabricated musical instruments.

gollark: Your users probably fall into the groups of: would never pirate even if given the option (I doubt there are many of these given the context); will pirate it if it's easy enough (you may be able to stop these people, but they could also just track down a "cracked" build); never going to buy it legitimately (probably many).

gollark: Just offer hosted cloud™ geometry dash instances which you are FORCED to use.
gollark: And you'll ALSO make the code quality worse and make it impossible to use if you stop working on it. That is a great idea. AND it'll be really annoying.
