I always thought it represented angst. Never knew what that throbing vein was thanks.

The throbbing vein balloon is more for outright anger. It's a pretty common visual shorthand in anime/manga, just like the sweat drop indicates nervousness, wariness, embarassment.

Holy stink, where have I been? Well, I started my temporary job this week. So less time to spend on game design... 
Cartoonier cloud cover that better fits the art style, as well as (slightly) improved blending/fading... fading clouds when there are larger patterns is still somewhat abrupt for some reason.
