Kongpanions

A Kongpanion is a digital pet on your Kongregate profile and can be used as a sidekick in certain games. The first Kongpanion was introduced on January 14th, 2014 and a new one is introduced each week.

Features
A Kongpanion is a creature companion on your profile. Having a Kongpanion on your profile does not award the user with anything more for their profile other than the icon of the Kongpanion in question. They will be used as sidekicks in certain games, but for now they only show up in one game. Sandbox Hero by jmtb02, made for Kongregate, is the only game to currently feature these sidekicks, but Kongregate has promised that they will be used in future games made by jmtb02. There is no news on whether or not Shiny versions of Kongpanions will have different in-game functionality than regular ones.

Acquiring a Kongpanion
Each week, there is a new Kongpanion available and they are gained by completing at least one Badge of the Day from that week. Gaining five of the Badge of the Day badges from a single week will give you a "Shiny" version of that week's Kongpanion. The Shiny versions have the same functionality as a regular one. They also look almost the same, except that they are wearing a crown and there are stars in the image showing how the pet sparkles.
