Kevin & Friends - Video Game 2



Kevin & Friends - Video Game 2 is 2021 platform game developed by the Ages Team. The game is a sequel of the first video game as it follows the 3 heroes once again from the first video game against the 2 antagonists. It is designed as a SEGA-Genesis style on Scratch that can only be played on PC, in which it is called an "X-bit SEGA Genesis.  Plot: 

After the events of the first video game, Trixie's defeat was practically neglected, then partners up with a part-fish maniac, Marvin. Trixie and Marvin, as a group of 2, are planning to enter the internet to steal the top secret humanity database file and use it to dominate the world. Kevin, Mariela, & Sonic are on their way to stop them before it's too late. Development:

Shortly after releasing Kevin & Friends - Video Game, 3 people has approved of the sequel by voting on a Scratch project. Kevin told his team to work on a sequel and everyone was excited about it. The project stared off with a basic title background with the Sailor Moon title theme from the SEGA Mega Drive.

Then on December 2020, Kevin discovered TurboWarp, which is a modified version of the Scratch GUI engine that will compile Scratch projects into JavaScript to make them run smoother and faster. Kevin now used TurboWarp as a primary language for the team's future projects. They have enabled the "60 FPS" feature to run the project twice as fast.

The team has worked on the project for a while. 3 boys with programming and 3 girls with art. They're all also working on audio as well. The team was able to manage to fix all kinds of bugs in the game surpisingly, while most people on Scratch just dump leave them. As of nearly the end of December, the project was 90% done with all artwork, variables, audio, and bosses completed. As of January 2021, Kevin released the demo build on Scratch and uploaded a final release trailer on his YouTube channel.

5 days before the final release deadline, Kevin decided to completely change the boss fight and the background almost at the end of the game. Previously, the boss fight was supposed to involve the player into fighting both Trixie and Marvin at once. Instead, Kevin replaced the boss fight to a mirror enemy, which means that whatever character the player chose, they have to fight against the evil clone of the character that Trixie and Marvin have merged into.

Kevin quickly play-tested the game before the final release and uploaded the project (unshared) on Scratch 2 days before the deadline, ready to be published by January 10th, 2021.
