Taka Taka: Oni Designs

The 2022 Global Game Jam was a very fun time and led to a fantastic project that has taught me a lot.
This character, though not too terribly varied when comparing his used designs, still was a fun and complicated process in designing, and redesigning him for the extended version of Taka Taka.
Here's to many more fun projects in the future!
Have a very blessed one folks!
