Description
Welcome to Sunny Swamps (aka Six Flags Japan)! This is my take on the RCT1 Loopy Landscapes scenario of the same name inspired by the Japanese cultures located in Hitachiomiya, Japan, first opened to the general public on May 24th, 1991. It is home to 26 rides and attractions including nine different roller coasters and three water rides.
Samurai Temple Entertainment Company announced the brand-new theme park had started its construction back in 1986 but there was no official name at the time until 1988 when the park finally has its official name called, Sunny Swamps. Originally scheduled to open in summer 1990, the company started to face some financial difficulties and decided to push back the grand opening date to next spring. The park had faced low attendance since its first debuted but found the way to raise its number with some new additions until Samurai Temple sold the park to Premier Parks in 1995 they have only added one new roller coaster which is Ninja (Vekoma SLC). They went on to purchase Six Flags several years later. Sunny Swamps was renamed and rebranded under the new name, 'Six Flags Japan', in 1998 with blasting new additions over the next several years including Kamikaze Zero (aka Superman: Koutetsu no Norimono), Bukkake Blaster and the largest roller coaster in the park's history, Ligma Ball (aka Kuraokami) until the company filed for bankruptcy in 2009 forcing them to sell their Japanese theme park to the new owners.
Toei Animation once step in and take over the park's ownership and operation from Six Flags but not without renaming the park back to Sunny Swamps at the start of the 2010 season up until early 2018. Once the Japanese animation company made the most difficult decision to sell the park to what was rumored to be the legacy Cedar Fair company which the Japanese government has shut down after the park management team says there's no evidence of them buying Sunny Swamps from Toei Animation. Citizens of Hitachiomiya was surprised the park confirmed the original owner, Samurai Temple Entertainment Company, is back better than ever after series of financial difficulties they faced nearly 2 1/2 decades ago and still operate the park to this day. The park suddenly announced their old and rough Vekoma SLC, Ninja, has been converted into a compact B&M Inverted Coaster for the 2024 season. There's nothing major coming to the park for the 2025 season.

That dive machine at the back is so cool, great job on the park Memes, it's a very good skill to get accustomed to delivering another full scale solo. Excited to see more from you.
A pretty fun scenario tribute, I like the decision to stick with the red tile paths all around as that's a big part of this scenario's look. The color choices and DKSO objects used also work well with the aesthetic I think. Ride design wise, I really like the custom support work, there's some nice interaction moments and I think the layouts are solid.
Some cool layouts for sure - I think that is definitely a strength of this park. Also interesting to see a traditional four corners park layout. But, this at the end of the day does feel very scenario-play like to me because of path layout, archy, and some rides felt a bit too simple/plain.
