ONI x MATSURI

Watch out, a group of Japanese Yokai named Oni have invaded the local summer festival! It is up to you, the town's samurai, to find their boss and take back the festival in this side-scrolling platformer!

This project began as a final group project for a python class using the PyArcade Library. As this was part of a study abroad experience in Kyoto, Japan, I wanted to pitch something inspired by the Gion Matsuri (Kyoto's largest summer festival) and Obon season. After completing the class, the team rebuilt and improved the project the following the semester as a senior project in Godot Engine. As a continuation, two members continued to build a custom console and controller for the game the next semester.

My contributions include most of the art and aesthetic rigor, UI functionality, powerup functionality, and procedural map generation.
