  • This is a tool-assisted speedrun. For more information, see tasvideos.org/1334M
    TAS originally published on 2009-08-08
    Kid Chameleon is the story of a kid trapped in an arcade machine, where he has to traverse many different kinds of levels from different "games" and can transform into many types of characters. It is rather convoluted, with the ability to take many paths to the last level.
    Instead of taking the fastest path, this movie takes the longest path possible without backtracking, but does so as quickly as possible. Several new tricks originated in this run that only recently found their way into the any%.

    Less than 30mins is insane....!?
    This is easily (in my opinion) the best Mega Drive game there was, a huge game especially when trying to get 100%!

    Never could complete this behemoth of a game without the level skip cheat on level 2. 😭 So many good memories though.

      I beat it once legit with no skipping; but I had to use a gaming magazine to tell me the right path to take. Before then; I'd just get lost roughly halfway through the game

      This was one of the few games we had so me and my brother actually beat it without any cheats or skips. Funny thing is i probably beat Dark Souls dozens of hours faster than Kid Chameleon. Games used to be too punishing.

      The Mega Drive can sound way better than this GEMS-made OST. Look at Captain America and the Avengers for a truly "MD-like" OST.

      I played this with some relatives a few times when I was younger. Once we played 12 hours in a row and got a full game over on the final stage of the game. The next time I played the game, I beat it in 2.5-3 hours by myself. These days it takes me about 60-90 minutes for casual runs.

      agreed! I can beat Bloody Swamp like nothing now, first or second try always. The stairway of rubber blocks is the hardest part...but as long as you stop running and just slowly step down, it's a piece of cake.

      It's just that you were expected to figure this out on games back then and they didn't have a guide or anything to help. So good luck not getting sent backwards for the 5th time if you couldn't figure it out.

    Never realized just how linear the start of the game is. Up until a few levels before the first boss, the route's the same as the normal fastest route. And even then the deviations are pretty minor.
