In Meccha Chameleon, you begin play as a featureless, white, blobby biped\u2014but you don’t stay that way. Indeed, it’s a wacky hide-and-seek game where instead of morphing into a prop or smashing serial killers’ knees with a wood pallet, you paint your body on the fly using a color wheel to blend in with your surroundings. If that sounds fun to you, you’re not alone: the game just sold a million copies in four days.<\/p>\n

That sales figure comes from a short and sweet Steam community blog post<\/a>, where developer lemorion_1224 simply wrote “Thank you so much for playing!” It seems like the game has been big with streamers and YouTubers, which probably helped. The developer appears to be leaning in given that the game proudly “supports public matches and streaming,” as its description states. <\/p>\n

It even has a “required” guideline on the Steam page urging streamers to include the game’s name in the title of their livestreams, which I’m not sure is enforceable. Still, search the game up on YouTube and you’ll be met with all sorts of thumbnails adorned with garish colors and shocked expressions.<\/p>\n
