The first Kumper prototype was made in Scratch, in 2023 new year's eve
Almost a year later, it's now being turned into an almost actual game for the Gameboy colour using GB Studio!
Both games will display many differences, but many aspects are being kept.
Next up
#Devruary having to deal with bugs while having no idea how to fix them (then you get stuck and leave the project for 2 months until you randomly unlock the solution for it and come back)
I rewrote a script many times now and the bug keeps getting worse 
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)
#Devruary Double tap to sprint.
It's very simple, but on the engine I'm using I took a month just to get it to work at all (then I got burned out), now I'm trying to make it work right and it's probably the most puzzling thing I've coded so far

)
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
Updating the menus!
- The menu (after the title screen) now has a background (I'll still mess with the colours) & plays music (that is the same as the title but with only the wave and noise channels active).
- Navigation in the menu is also better now.
#Devruary I'm using GB Studio!
It's an engine for developing games for the Gameboy (DMG & Colour) systems. (Many devs got to put their games on cartidges and play them on the actual consoles!)
It's block coding based so it's very easy to get the hang of.
DRAGĂO!
Starting to get used to colour values, I tried applying them especially for the fog effect to give a sense of distance.

More backgrounds added!
There are many colours to pick from...
Lunch break!
#Devruary (day 19):
I always get burnt out when I spend too long trying to fix one issue/bug knowing that I got many more to fix, so I usually just work on smaller stuff in the game and later come back to that big issue (also motivation).
there wont be new updates before christmas
