Systems first
Every mechanic should touch at least two others. Depth comes from connections, not feature counts.
About the studio
Small team. Deep games.
Rakun Interactive is an independent games studio. We make long-form simulation games with systems that feed each other and the kind of pull that keeps you thinking about them after you close the game.
Who we are
Different worlds, one philosophy.
Our games span football scouting and music careers. What connects them is how they're built: deep systems, persistent progression, and decisions that matter a season, a tour or a whole career later.
My Scout Life is a scouting-first football management sim. Pop Star Life is a text-based music career sandbox. Pop Star Life 2, our biggest production yet, takes that career into a living 3D city and comes to Steam Early Access in December 2026.
We believe players deserve to see how a game is made and where it's going. That's why every game on this site has a public, phase-by-phase roadmap.
Principles
How we make games.
Measure, don't guess
Automated tests, bot play-throughs and frame budgets: if it matters, a tool checks it.
Build in the open
Public roadmaps, honest dates, and a clear line between what's shipped and what's planned.
Players as partners
Playtests, Early Access and community polls shape what we build next.
