As I was brainstorming another game idea, I wanted to create a new character with a new game. Not Meowman, but something unique. So my first idea: 3d cat creator! but it wouldve been a pain to draw all the assets in paint 3d, so another idea: peppy paws series! just like meowman, but 3d. but eh.. didnt know what game i should do. and then I said to myself (whats floral, pretty, and includes japanese culture in it? kimonos!) and i tried to make a bunny in a yellow and orange kimono. I liked the idea, but i thought it looked better without arms for some reason. they blocked the beauty of the kimono, and then i thought: another traditional japanese thing is kokeshi. and then obviously, it became a kokeshi doll.
please comment game ideas featuring kokeshi bunny down below! <3 to learn whats a kokeshi, scroll down. A kokeshi doll is a simple doll originally first made in a northeast region (Tohoku-chiyo) in Japan, without arms and legs. the old kokeshi dolls were made from wood, with a simple body. for the face there are a few thin lines of paint for the eyebrows, the eyes, the nose and the red lips. the body often has some cute floral painting with red, black, green, yellow, or purple inks. though there arent only floral designs, there could be ring designs or both. Also, Mii's are inspired by kokeshi!
