Petey Piranha (voiced by Toru Minegishi in his original appearance) is a boss from the Super Mario Bros. video game franchise.  Originally appearing in Super Mario Sunshine, Petey is a carnivorous plant who is set apart from the other piranha plants in the games by his sheer size and additional abilities.  He is a frequent nemesis of Mario and Luigi.  To recreate this funky plant costume, you’ll want to start with a green full-coverage bodysuit.  Then, don a pair of a pair of polka-dot briefs and a piranha plant mask.  For an extra touch, consider adding a floral headband to your costume to finish the look.

Icona Shard is a dancer in Just Dance who dances to “Telephone” by Lady Gaga and Beyonce. In Beyonce’s verse, she holds a red phone over her ear before throwing it away in frustration. There are some differences between both versions, such as her pink eyebrows and red lipstick. Trim the front of the wig with shears to replicate the blunt bangs. Affix the triangular gems on the black leotard using hot glue.

The Antagonist, known to many fans of the game as Not Important, is the controversial character at the heart of the video game Hatred.  Misanthropic and convinced that humanity is incapable of redemption, he sets out to murder as many people as possible before meeting his own violent end.  The Antagonist has long dark hair and pale skin.  He wears dark clothing including a long trench coat that adds to his imposing demeanor.

Aubrey is a member of the friend group at the heart of the indie game OMORI.  Aubrey is cheerful but anxious, and has a falling out with Basil, Kel, Sunny, and Hero.  She eventually joins the delinquent gang known as the Hooligans, though she eventually reconciles with her friends.  In the real world, Aubrey has long pink hair she ties back with a teal scarf.  She wears a blue denim mini skirt, black crop top, and colorful shoes paired with a white and yellow jacket.  She also carries a bat with nails driven through it.  In Sunny’s dream world, Aubrey has long blue-purple hair with a bow hair clip and wears a light-colored nightgown.  She also carries a stuffed eggplant called Mr. Plantegg.

Kel is Hero‘s younger brother in the indie RPG OMORI.  Competitive by nature, Kel can sometimes seem a little bratty.  He and Aubrey often bicker over small things, but he cares about her and his other friends deeply.  In the real world, Kel has brown hair and is very into sports.  You can add the design found on the front of his orange jersey with some white fabric paint, then add a pair of basketball shorts and sneakers, both in orange and white, to complete the look.  Kel’s dreamy outfit in HEADSPACE is a little more difficult to replicate because the multicolored checkered tank top is unique.  If you can’t find an exact match, look for tank tops with a soft ombre or pastel colors instead.  Pair it with a purple wig, dark shorts, and a beach ball to finish your costume.
