Rakuen is a 2017 adventure video game, created by Laura Shigihara.It was built using the RPG Maker XP engine and released in May 2017. It is a sprite-based exploration game, in which text boxes serve as the primary conduit for communication. Everyone says “Rock, Paper, Wizard” aloud, and upon saying “Wizard”, forms a hand gesture and points it towards a target. Each card describes the spell’s effect, which can push an opponent towards the exit, advance yourself towards the hoard, or manipulate the coins each wizard must collect to win.

i've been your butt THE WHOLE TIME
This was cute and good, thank you for making and sharing it!
No problem!! Remember to cast spells to your heart's desire!
It was fun being a dang ol wizard, and I like the ethereal deer that appear at night
Unless I missed something in my playthrough, I somehow expected more. Some jokes are fun, but some ideas are not so fresh and feel somewhat copied (yes, I loved Undertale and also like funny sorcerer stories like old Simon the Sorcerer, Discworld and Terry Pratchett´s stuff). The game feels a bit unfinished, like there was a plan to do something more with the story or plot; I don´t feel like trying to play through again and do stuff differently just to see what happens. Still, respect for bringing it to life!
this is further evidence as to why you're one of my favourite devs
Super pleasant and nice. I love all of the details, the spell animations, (especially the gardening one! I would love more wizard gardening) the lil' night animals coming out.
I found the text bubbles a little hard on the eyes when they flew across the screen everytime sometime talked and also scrolled into existance at the same time. The story itself was nicely built up and had me crying + laughing.
Thanks for making this!!
Thank you for playing!! I'm glad you enjoyed :)
(For future reference, in the pause menu, if you click the button that says 'I would prefer not to get motion sickness' it disables the text bubble flying across the screen like that, and adds a couple other minor things to make the game easier on the eyes. Hope this helps!!)
I feel so accomplished from collecting all the orbs. <3
Thanks for the thoughtful game!
i can't get the controls to work on linux, am unable to move the wizard…
Huh, that's super weird... Email me at hthrflowers@gmail with the details of your problem and I'll do what I can to fix it!! Apologies for the inconvenience!

i'm kinda just sitting here feeling conflicted about my exes now
Hi! Nothing happens, but you get a profound sense of accomplishment. I'm glad you enjoyed!! :)
