Sakurazaka Park - A Fun, Robot Themed Park In Roppongi
Sakurazaka Park, also known as the Robo-Robo Park, is a robot themed park located in Roppongi. Its many colorful slides and robot-designed playing equipment make it a great destination to visit with the kids!

Old game showcase: Robot Park
This post is to document one of the first unity games I ever made: Robot Park. Using 3D models I’d designed for a graphics project, I endeavoured to make a multiplayer game to prove they weren’t hard.
There’s no servers or anything but if you managed to get a network connection going you could totally join and play multiplayer, that part 100% worked. All that you could do though really was jump about in first person and push physics objects. Some of which had parenting issues and their scale would glitch out immediately.
I couldn’t figure out how to make walking animations so your robot just kind of slides everywhere. The only communication was that your head moved up and down when you looked. A friend of mine suggested that it should just be made into an online art exhibit, so I added a museum.
A hidden area was also added that you could get to with some parkour.
It was filled with physics enabled pre-separated robots that, when touched, would fall into pieces. Just to make it creepy.
What did we learn from this experience? Network coding is super hard and multiplayer games are sick for it. However, even though my coding knowledge was terrible, and there was no gameplay really whatsoever other than the pre-built unity first person controller, Robot Park is still filled with weird oddities that make it special.
Dear Diary,
Robot park was super cute. It wasn’t even all that far away. There was other play equipment too, but Monster was really in it for the stairs and the slide. When they first went to the slide I’m pretty sure I said “holy shit!” in surprise. The slide was fast. They loved it.
