You play a charming Charmeleon that is charming the females, by changing its color, just like real chameleons do during mating season.

Very entertaining game. Finally a game i can play without losing immediately haha

Developer

haha yea. we decided that it is more fun to actually just try to beat highscores instead of dying all the time.

Thanks for playing <3

Ha! That's my go to song whenever there's a serious situation I shouldn't be singing in.

Developer

Haha, I see why! XD

Really cool indeed, some kind of vampire survivors base mixed with an hidden rhythmic game, basic, simple but efficient, you clearly know where you wanted to go with this.

Also, this kind of art style is not my cup of tea but I must recognize that you guys have made a good job artistically speaking.

The intro song literally killed me, I listen it to the point where the music stop playing 

x ) I heard there are a real reggae scene in Germany, although I don't know if its true and if we can call that song reggae or not. And If you made this Electro swing banger by yourself, kudos ! Even If I find the gameplay a bit slow for the BPM, but that's very subjective.

You also seems to have made some research about why chameleon really change their color, demystifying the urban legend... 

I only manage to reach a score of 117 at the 4th try, and I really tried to think of the best way to score, I find that staying static tend to stuck some cham on the rocks, leading to less score I guess ?

Developer

That's true with the reggae scene. I think "Gentleman" started that hype.

But this song was actually from artlist. So its Stock music basically. So no kudos to us on this part.

Damn so i guess the Loop on the intro music did not work.

Looking back on it you are right, the BPM is a bit high. 

But we liked the "aladdin" style, and we thought it fits to this charmeleon having a harem of charmeleon girls. xD

It is true, once you reach around 110-120 there really needs to be a bit of luck involved to get more then 120.

Thanks for playing and your detailed comment.
