Koppy Kopsocks

2 months ago

Koppy went through many changes, every look with its own personality!

It all started with a prototype Scratch game in 2022, now we're in 2025 with a Gameboy game on its Beta/Demo phase!

Read article to know more about every design and each prototype!


Kangoo Twins (2022)

This was the first ever prototye of Koppy, it had a very different plot, but the concept was pretty much the same.

Koppy started out with red/brown fur since I wanted him to be accurate to actual red kangaroos, while his twin (now redesigned, he will appear in a future entry) is directed to the other types of kangaroos with lighter fur.

You can play this prototype on Scratch! (It's not good, like at all, but its there)

Kumper the Kangaroo (2023)

This is the 2nd prototype, the plot was already close to the current one.

Koppy's design is almost exactly the same as the current one, while the sprites on the game still having the brown fur from the palette choosen (which it was the NES palette).

I drew more additional artworks in that time:

In this you can also play as a rabbit character (will also appear in a future entry), whose name is "Hopring". This character was originally designed by Shrimpy-9941 on scratch! (Image below is their concept of the character)

I really liked his concept, so I ended up adding the character as a playable one in the game.

Then later I drew artwork of Hopring:

(People in Scratch really did think that this was jax from tadc 🥀)

You can play this prototye on Scratch!

Kumper Socks (2024)

Then I changed to the GB Studio engine and began developing Koppy in there!

Koppy actually featured a different pair of socks, instead of the usual green/blue he had white socks with blue stripes (which is actually based on actual real socks i have that I use at home!).

He then would be alternating socks in some artworks, but currently he's wearing just the green socks.

You can check all of the previous devlogs on the game page.

Koppy Kopsocks (2025)

I changed the name from Kumper to Koppy Kopsocks since it was an easely vandalizable name (just like when Pac-Man used to be called Puck-Man).

Koppy already had his design finalized for quite some time now, while the final artstyle just had been set now.

This project has been in a break until october, where the artstyle was pretty much finalized.

And that's it for now! There's MANY MORE concepts I made, but I don't want to spoil too much!

I'll post more of these in the future.

New enemies: SPIDERS!

They get on the ceilling, and then they rapidly raise down to the floor! If they hit you from above, you get hurt, but if you jump on top of them, you'll defeat them and even get a jump boost - allowing for some cool platforming!

Koppy Kopsocks has a new look! And a new version avaliable to play! (which I secretly dropped it 3 days ago)

For 2026, my goal is to finish the Demo, and if things go well (bugs all clear, etc) I might try finish the full game and launch it!

2023 KOPPY SKETCHES!!!

Old design I came up for Koppy. He always had his socks on his previous concepts, but this was the first time he got a shirt. I ended up making him wear both.

University in december is hell, this is all I can do for Koppy for now.

Name change! Kumper Socks is now Koppy Kopsocks.

This name change was made for a particular reason (the same reason as why Pac-Man didn't stick to Puck-man).

The logo will be updated later.

(The 0.4.0 build with the rebrand is now avaliable!)

In december 31th 2023, the first build of Koppy Kopsocks (Kumper) was released on Scratch (then gradually updated). That makes it 2 years of Koppy's debut!

(There was other prototype I made in 2022, but it's different in every way so I don't count it)

Kumper is now back in development!

It's been months since I haven't worked on this game, but now I picked up on this again and actually reworked everything from zero just yesterday. This is the progress so far.

This build is now playable too!

Before doing the other sketches from 2023, there's this earlier sketch of one of Koppy's first ever designs.

He has different socks, and is wearing boxing gloves! He also had a pocket in his own body like actual kangaroos.

I will start to put more effort in editing my devlog videos on YouTube! (My other ones don't even have any editing at all)

There's also new stuff added to the game, watch the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xe0CExvi49g

Tomias, the cop cat

It's been a while since I drew this OC

He has a badge now! He's now a certified time police.

I have plans to remake the animated pilot for 2026! And maybe make more episodes after that!

"Dragon of the Clouds"

Doing more that lineart style from my other dragon art from a few days ago (except that I'm mixing in some twists!)
