Hello, I just posted the remake I did of the complete Kid Chameleon soundtrack on my youtube channel. I had to share it with KC fans but I couldn't find any website besides this one. I hope you'll like it!

I would like to submit my first score to the leaderboard. I've played KC for most of my life, so this was a huge milestone.

Crabs are one enemy I feel are a bit unfair. I've dreamed up a possible alternate contender or two to do more about them, but lack resources to make an actual game about those ideas. However, something recently occured to me about The Kid's(not a Karen's or whatnot) existing helmets. Could "Rhino-Man," or Berserker, charge and knock one of those off the screen? It's getting to look to me like the creators of this game meant to tease the player by fixing it so that the world will never know. Part of that is by making Crabs so rare. First level you can find any if you want to is known as CRAB COVE. Try getting in there as Berserker. You have to pass through THE CAGED BEASTS to get to it, after passing through DEVIL'S MARSH 1,....and DEVIL'S MARSH 1 has stone-barricaded stairs that Red Stealth or the Iron Knight can get through, but not Berserker. Next possibility(but not possible in the same playthrough as THE CAGED BEASTS and CRAB COVE) is KNIGHT'S ISLE. If it *WERE* possible to get into that one as Berserker, what good would that do? You'd still need to give up the Berserker identity for Micromax to get near 1 of the 2 Blue Crabs, and only Cyclone or Iron Knight or Micromax can get near the other. Where else are there Crabs? Just a couple of Elsewheres? The one from BENEATH THE TWISTED HILLS to THE SHIMMERING CAVES is about impossible to enter as any other than Micromax or Red Stealth,...and why bother to kill those 2 Crabs when they're on top of a set of blocks you'll never need to get on top of for a moment? Let them oscillate back & forth, and worry about the Orcas and Tar Monsters instead. Finally, there's the "dead-ender" with MONSTER ISLAND, fit for those who really like fighting monsters. There's a Berserker helmet in MONSTER ISLAND, but can you escape as Berserker instead of Skycutter? Bereserker can dislodge a regular Steel Block from its starting position, but not a Drill Block. It looks like that question may keep drilling in the back of my mind forever.

im trying to basically recreate kid chameleon using game maker studio. I already have a solid platformer made using some of the games sprite art, and the next step is to accurately make it FEEL like kid chameleon, and this is proving hard. I see the wiki isn't overly active, but i wasn't too sure where else i could find information on this. Basically the players max speed (approximate pixels moved per frame), acceleration (how long it takes them to reach max speed), max jump height and how it correlates to speed, along with any info on everything else like crawling, sliding, animation speed, ice blocks, and how those effect you/are effected by various factors, etc. The information i've got so far is that it seems the Kid character takes about 30 frames to reach max speed and moves at 2 pixels per frame once at max speed, and this is without holding down the run button. Maybe there's some convenient things i dont know about like maybe run is just speed *1.5 or something lol. Anyways not expecting anyone to do hours of research for me, but if some of you already know some of these things please let me know. Even if you don't know specifics any tips on how to make it FEEL like kid chameleon would be awesome.

Thanks in advance.

Hello, everyone.

I was wondering if anyone else experienced this when playing, I'm not sure if it's a glitch. It's been a while, so I'm not 100% sure if it's reproducible, but it seems that some helmets, if they fall on top of Micromax, kill him instead of transforming him. I had that happen when an Iron Knight helmet falls (directly) on top of Micromax, and this may have happened with Samurai as well.

Another glitch (?) concerns spinning twins and the player: one of the twins has a hat, and if the player separates them, the hat flies upward. If the player is under the hat when it falls, they seem to be crushed by it.

Can anyone confirm these two? I play KC on emulators nowadays, but I remember that happening to me on the console as well, 25+ years ago.

I wonder if it's even possible to get into that particular Elsewhere(leading to Towers Of Blood) as Berserker? I dislike that Elsewhere enough that if I'm going the "sky view" route at all, I'll most likely aim for the lower-down teleporter that takes me right into Towers Of Blood and gets that much over with. But I'm getting to think lately I'd really like to see Berserker in that one. By crashing through the walls and charging out the dragons, I'll bet he could get through it easily without changing to Micromax. I've even tried to arrange that, but have hit 2 big obstacles. 1.) Even with 4 extra hit points accumulated in earlier levels thanks to The Iron Knight, leaving Bagel Brothers with that last Berserker mask, and bringing over 90 diamonds(50 diamonds' Wall Of Death used on the first several Tanks--then 20 diamonds' self-shielding when he passes those drill blocks on the first down-drop and turn to the right), it's not that easy to get so far through Diamond Edge as Berserker. 2.) Because Berserker is not a great high-jumper like Red stealth, he appears to be incapable of making the jump to that high teleporter with 2 Prize Blocks by it--unless maybe he's very lucky at jumping off the top of a Cloud enemy that happens to be moving into position just right. Has anyone else here ever successfully done that??

Hey lads , thought yous might be interested in this as its going to let you create whatever you like. Its a much more advanced little big planet type of game.

Some of the things people have created in the beta look really promising, with enough time people will be recreating actual games based on the originals, im sure yous all would like to see a 3d or a even a remastered 2d level of KC.

Dreams is due out this year but has no concrete date set but the betas have begun, if your interested you need to sign up for the news letter to have a chance at the next upcoming beta.

I want to know what is the "Circle of Death" or the "Death Snake" moves as well as all the rest.

I disagree with a couple statements I've seen about "Ghost Panzer"(my personal nickname for Juggernaut, as he seems like an answer to Marvel Comics' Ghost Rider to me) being "useless in the level." Alien Twilight is one. I feel better if I can use him to clear out the enemies in the area down below so that when I grab that last Red Stealth helmet I can chop down to the escape teleporter unmolested. The problem is, Juggernaut's helmet is in a treacherous position to try to take. Lots of shooter blocks, some waiting to be revealed with a head-bump. Make a mistake, and you might destroy that prize block that's his helmet before you can use it, or even get yourself shot up dead. The other case is Sky Fortress. If I get Juggernaut's helmet I'm more confident that I can remove enemies in my way to make it as far as that teleporter to the "dead-end" Elsewhere and thus come out closer to Sky Fortress' exit. As for the one that says "Useful as teaching juggling to an oyster"--well I have to admit the placement of that helmet is simply silly. When you get it you're already close to escaping that particular desert-setting Elsewhere. What are you going to do, drop back down just to be able to say you got one Tank with Juggernaut? If only he'd be some help in the level to come, Nightmare Peaks 2, clearing out a screenful of enemies with his 5-Diamond shot first, then change to Cyclone and go through unmolested. But not so. The enemies there keep re-appearing when you defeat them and go off-screen, so clearing them out doesn't last.

Is that really as I read it, record time for completing that level? That seems to say I'm a 3-time record breaker. I generally prefer to skip that and "Forced Entry" with the route of "Valley Of Life" and "The Black Pit." Until my recent re-reading about that one, I had no idea where to find any Clocks. So, I've only passed it successfully 3 times out of umpteen times I've played into Stage 4. But each time, because I was desperately racing for the exit, I got the Speed Bonus, under 174 seconds.

Bloody Swamp is pretty exacting, the way I see it, in the requirement of having the right timing and not making a mistake. However, it is short enough in total route to the escape teleporter that I can see where some players would finish it and ask, "What was all that hype about?" There's one thing I personally hate about "Bloody Swamp" more than the demands of the level itself. It's the fact that if I do go through it and pass it, I miss going through "Caves Of Ice." That one is like reaching an oasis to me. Usually by somewhere in Stage 3 I've had at least 1 death that wipes out any extra Hit Points I gained with the Iron Knight. "Caves Of Ice" is the best level in the game in which to regain them, and show the patience to max out to 4 more than normal. There are lots of seeming stone blocks that are disguised diamond blocks, and a Clock, all of which can be repeatedly refreshed by using a teleporter at the bottom of the level(not the one on the left that takes more stone block column drilling to get to. That's a dead-end Elsewhere you don't need, and everything you need is in "Caves Of Ice.").

So it looks like we keep getting beta info from Kid Chameleon that did not make it to the final version.

As you probably know The Crypt's leftovers were mostly excluded from the level list. However, there are 3 particular leftovers that were still on the level list: Maps 48, 42 and 09.

As you can see map48 is between 0F and 47 (Crab Cove and The Forbidden Tombs) while map42 is between 39 and 3C (The Shimmering Caves and Sky Fortress). So, does this mean that there were 2 levels outside the main path but ultimately did not make it?

I don't know what to say about map09, it's the VERY last level on the list, right after Elsewhere 32 (the desert one). The only place where it can fit would be a dead-end within The Final Marathon. I doubt the creators would let players skip the last level before the final boss that easy, but it could explain why it was scrapped and left there.

I've really been looking into TASing this game lately, and in order to do that properly, I've had to take a look at some important variables within the game's RAM data. To my surprise, the RAM can actually tell you all kinds of variables like speeds and accelerations of transformations, enemies, objects, etc. Since this information is invaluable for the TASing process, I've decided to start compiling this sort of information, starting with adding technical stats for Kid on its page:

http://kidchameleon.wikia.com/wiki/Kid (Chart is still under construction, so it looks kinda messy still)

I plan on doing this sort of chart for pretty much everything in the game, but given the amount of variables to observe, it'll take quite a while. Thoughts?

So on the Ice page on this wiki, you can see that the background for the page is the Ice theme. How did they get the image for that? I want the image myself so I can use it as my computer wallpaper, since I really like the way it looks.

Thank you in advance, and be nice! :) Sorry I'm such a noob. (And yes, I did try right-click save as, only saved the PAGE itself... XD)

EDIT: Can't find the image online either. :P

He everyone it have been a while to busy with real life though when there is a moment i sometimes spend it on KC trying to explore stuff and trying things out.

Anyway this new cheat which it must be will brings you to the next level and i say must be because one line of code is preventing it??

When the pause screen comes up there is a piece of code which looks at on key hold D and A, it then will jumps to the next part and increase the level number with 1.

I was playing this game on the xbox but got stuck when I got to the swamp level with the razor wall chasing you, because I can't jump over the moving walls. I thought maybe it was a fault with the xbox sega mega drive collection version, but I downloaded and emulator and I can't jump high enough to get the extra life on the second level, so it's the same problem. I know I should be able to jump higher because I've watched youtube videos, and also because certain levels you are obviously meant to be able to jump higher than I can.
