I’ve made something similar to this, but rather than using sprites it’s actually an effect (like in “start screen effect clouds”). by using custom files and some JavaScript programs I was able to make three custom effects": rain, lightning, and storm clouds. And also, they’re not sprites, just renderables, so they won’t bug up the game. Here is the repo:
