    This was the very first video game I ever worked on! It's truely wild to watch this and have serious flashbacks of building some of the levels! Also remembering one of the designers, Rick Macaraeg, and one of the artists, Alan Ackerman, who have both since passed away!!
    It's great to see so many comments here of people who remember and loved the game, even if it was stupid hard to finish all the way to the end!! (You can blame Mark Cerny and Hoyt Ng for that!!)

      @@gospyro I think it would have been a bigger hit if something had been added. I was fun but it did become a bit too much of a grind to have to start over every time you wanted to play it. We even kept an eye out for cheats but I never came across one for it. Had all the sonic cheats though

      Ah, Kid Chameleon. I remember playing the sh** out of this game back in the day, and it's still as fun as I remember it being.
      The best and most efficient way I can review this game is *_It's Sega's answer to Super Mario Bros 3_*
      The graphics are nice and colorful, the music is great, the controls are solid... But, the acceleration is like Super Mario 2. You go to top speed in less than a second.
      I think that 100 levels without any sort of save or password system is overkill. Especially with how frustrating the game can be at times. But, the game is still plenty fun.
      It was a good call for M2 to put this game on the Genesis Mini.

    One of my absolute favorite games! Never forget when I played over 80 levels and left my Sega on to go to school.
    The despair was total when I came home and realized that my dad turned off the Sega. "Electricity is expensive!"
    I managed to complete the whole game during a Christmas break! Still owns the console and the game and sometimes plays to keep the nostalgia up.
    Over the years, I have honed my technique and can now complete many levels in a few seconds with the "right" character to gain extra points.

    There's a secret warp to the last level at 5:01. The block you're on. You have to hit the down button (and maybe left or right too) and i think press a button or two. I can't remember exactly, but i found it by accident as a kid and i did it almost every time.

    On the 2nd level, if you stood in one of those two blocks above the exit flag, and press Down + Right, A + C, there's a direct warp to the final boss. Move combo could be wrong, it's been way too long ago and I may be wrong. But there's a definitely a warp to the final boss there.

    I don't think Kid Chameleon is a forgotten game, it is almost always included on Sega Genesis collections and its quite popular between Sega enthusiasts.
    It is a 90s jewel, when people, earth and everyone were happier.
    Cancel 2019 and bring back the 90s please.

    Totally radical! I always heard of this 90s platformer from Sega's big Sonic era, but I was never really interested in trying it out for myself. Sega's answer to Super Mario Bros. 3 I guess. The EDGE is sharp enough to cut your fingers on.
    So Kid Chameleon's got all these bodacious power-ups, all of which are awesome and man, the level design is pretty tubular.
    Yo, you think you have what it takes? Are you a bad enough dude to survive this EXCELLENT adventure??!

      I loved it too, but as an adult, it weirds me out. If you go back and watch any of those episodes, he gets creepy with how touchy feely he gets with the kids on stage. Especially with how he touches their necks in an uncomfortable, way too familiar kind of a way.

    I was an SNES kid. Cousins had the Genesis, but I didn't get a lot of playtime on it back in the day. Luckily, as of last September, I have the Sega Genesis Mini and I just beat this game a couple of hours ago. It is definitely one of the Genesis Mini's more challenging games. This playthrough was extremely helpful for some of the harder levels (esp. towards the end!) and on areas where I'd simply get stuck.

    • @NintendoComplete
