Kota Chomp is a Game Boy game made for GBJAM 14 (2026).

The theme was “Old Gold.”

In Kota Chomp, poop slowly petrifies into gold. This Old Gold is the ultimate food, helping Kota grow stronger and faster.

The more Old Gold you consume, the closer you get to becoming a GOLDEN GOD!

Poop grow old. Poop turn gold.

Eat, grow, poop, and become the golden god of all kots.

Made with GB Studio 4.3, Aseprite, and BeatMaker 2.

Controls

  • Move: Arrow Keys or WASD
  • Jump / A Button: Z or J
  • B Button: X or K
  • Start: Enter (pause)
  • Select: Shift (does nothing)

You can also enter the mouse holes to travel across the board.
If you accidentally cut your body in half, quickly eat as much of the severed section as you can to regain sustenance before it disappears from the board.

Eat stuff. Get longer. Poop. Eat the poop. Have fun.

Very neat idea and interpretation of the jam's theme. I like how you handled the lose condition, very cool way to add error margin to snake!
