oh yeah, in the code you have that lets the sprite walk around, there should be a code that shows how fast you want it to move, use whatever you named it instead of speed.
in the game there's the main screen where you move, and if you press a button it brings you to the 'shop'. I can't figure out how to put spscale and speed+5 into the shop.
what i'm doing for the code is
IF B==Y THEN GOTO @SHOP
@SHOP
IF B==A&DOWN THEN SPSCALE #,#,#
I put # because i can't remember the exact numbers, and for the speed
IF B==UP&A THEN X=X+5
and so on
