Making Toys

So my Beep Boop creature is a squid. He loves the dark and hates the light. He’ll increasingly beep faster the longer he’s upset until he dies. He can be revived by being immersed in full darkness for a little while. He’ll get more excited the longer he’s in the dark.

::BONUS::When he’s upset his eyes will blink red as well.
