Hi everyone~! Recently I was introduced to a wonderful charity that works to improve the lives of children in hospitals all around the world. They're called GameChanger, and throughout the month of August, they're trying to raise $75,000 for children's hospitals.
This event will culminate on August 29th, where friends of GameChanger (people like CaptainSparklez, Strawburry17, JeromeASF, and many more) will be streaming games that empower and bring hope to people battling illnesses (or those fighting along their side). I'm really excited to share that they'll be playing both I,Hope as well as our very own Rakuen! I'll also be joining the stream at some point, so I hope to see you there!
The full-day event will be happening on August 29th (beginning at 8am PST) at the following link:

Please help us spread the news! While we won't be filling patient lounges with Sila Berry Bean Bags or Ogee the Cat, there will be scholarships given for cancer survivors, game days and gifts for children receiving long-term treatment, and many other initiatives to improve the lives of the patients^^
Rakuen Animated Short Film - Farmer in the Sky (Ep. 2)
Rakuen is an adventure game about a little Boy who lives in the hospital. One day, the Boy asks his Mom to escort him to the fantasy world from his favorite storybook, so that he can ask the Guardian of the Forest to grant him one wish. In order to receive his wish, the Boy must complete a set of challenges that revolve around helping his neighbors in the hospital by interacting with their alter-egos in the fantasy world...
...A cranky old man who guards a broken music box with his life while complaining that he never gets any visitors; a young woman in a coma whose husband hasn’t left her side in months; a little girl who laments over a friend she was never able to say goodbye to after growing ill… The Boy slowly begins to realize that his neighbors are plagued by secrets and struggles that are mysteriously tied to the strange hospital.
