Brutal Legend

RKGK / Rakugaki is an action adventure game focused on arcade fun. The game was developed by the independent Mexican studio Wabisabi Games, which received support from Riot Games as part of the Underrepresented Founders Program aimed at creators from marginalized minorities. The producers drew inspiration from the platformers from the late 1990s, as well as from Japanese pop culture.

The word "rakugaki" used in the title (translated as "doodling" or "sketching") also originates from Japan. Initially, the police used it negatively, referring to graffiti creators, but over time it was adopted by the artists themselves.

Plot

The action of the game takes place in the futuristic Cap City, a metropolis once teeming with life and colors. However, under the influence of B Corp propaganda led by the sinister Mr. Buff the city streets became grey, and the city's inhabitants lost all signs of individuality. The main character of the game is the artist Valah, who declares war on the organization, planning to liberate the city through the power of graffiti and positive energy.

Gameplay

RKGK / Rakugaki is a third-person perspective production with gameplay inspired by mechanics known from platforming games. As Valah, we traverse a dystopian city, gradually restoring its colors. Our primary goal is to get rid of screens used for spreading corporate propaganda by putting graffiti on them.

The protagonist of RKGK / Rakugaki moves around locations using a varied palette of movements. Valah is capable of performing double jumps and slides, running on walls, as well as gliding with the help of the accompanying bot. Some of the heroine's techniques are based on using her artistic abilities, including paint surfing, which is used for quick movement and attacking enemies. In RKGK / Rakugaki, apart from standard opponents, we also encounter bosses whose defeat requires the use of appropriate tactics.

We collect currency during the game, which we then use to purchase new outfits for Valah, as well as modify our hideout and unlock subsequent graffiti patterns.
