[dropcap]R[/dropcap]akuen is a beautiful adventure game that features a hospitalised boy, who travels to the fantasy world of Rakuen with his mother. Upon its release on 10th May of last year, Rakuen was a firm favorite here at MPG, despite flying under the radar a little. Since then, however, it has obtained a well-deserved overwhelmingly positive review score on Steam, and captured the hearts of many. ????

As an indie game, it was assumed that Rakuen would be something of a one-hit-wonder. However, Laura Shigihara (the developer and publisher of Rakuen), recently posted an exciting trailer to her channel. Entitled ‘The Farmer in the Sky – Trailer (Rakuen 3D animated series)’, the cute trailer gives us a sneak-peak of an upcoming 3D animated series, which is set in the whimsical world of Rakuen. The Farmer in the Sky is currently in development by Laura Shigihara and animator Slamacow. The series has its own YouTube channel, which will provide more details about its launch in due course.

To celebrate the exciting news of an imminent animated series for Rakuen, the game is currently 40% off on Steam!
