A NEW character and the arch villain, The Evil Aye in the future game Chameleon Swing 2. ‘I SEE YOU! I can see into your soul, its like an open book.’

UNLIMITED POWER!!! – Do you know how much I sacrificed.

Inspiration:
Ming the Merciless
The power, reach and influence of the Catholic Church (Middle Ages to 17th century)
Voldemort
Darth Sidious, Darth Vader, Count Dooku
El Greco religious paintings
Ingres paintings – Napoleon and Zeus
The Cardinal in the Three Musketeers
The authority of the Church in ‘Elizabeth’

Two recent updates this weekend, creating the new Chameleon Swing icon for the game and reworking the cyclops statue still hanging around inside my computer. Still alot of refining and muscle definition to do but it’s taking shape.

This is the recent update for the 3D Camil Chameleon model. I went back into the model to redo and adjust some items, improve textures and render again to give a more polished and striking look to the work. Go to the main page and view the movie and images from there.

Warning! ‘Highly Addictive, like liquid…..’ And they keep coming back for more!!

Chameleon Swing – Welcome to our booth said the chameleon to the fly Crazy Chameleons with bulging green eyes and blasting out party blowers stun passer-by’s. Win sweets and prizes and the highest scorers of the day take away one-of-a-kind comic strip print.

Having GEEK success in Dreamland. Now its Insomnia 61 with four days of high energy Chameleon Swing fun at the NEC, Birmingham.

We had interest from across the board from indie developers, gamers, families, teens and our target audience kids, 6-13 years (possibly one’s that play Minecraft constantly and want a break) Kids pick up Chameleon Swing quick and fast! And once players “got it”, they wanted to master the tongue swinging mechanic (no easy feat!) and the better they got the more addicted they became until they died to the infamous spiky trees for the 50th time! Ahhhhh! I’m so irritated with this game but I’m determined to get the highest score – just one more go!

A Snack Game (And suitable for a quick toilet break!)

The simple tap and play functionality allows players unlimited go’s without hindering their game play.

Unique Game Features

Quick touch and play game with unlimited go’s
Tongue swinging mechanic with momentum and flow
Unique cartoon characters with a handrawn quality and backstory
Competitive

There is always added polish needed to a game and Chameleon Swing is no exception. The list is long, but from the ample feedback we received at Insomnia 61 we can’t wait to delve back into the characters, the stories, and GameMaker to build the game assets.

If you havant download the game for the Android do so free at the link below – Provide your email and we will keep you informed of future Chameleon Swing updates, especially for the iphones(which will happen!). Thank you and enjoy the game.

Apologies readers(if any!!) about the long delay in blogging a post of recent updates. I really have to be more consistent instead of going off on an art journey without you keen folk following me, just me i’m just bad at chasing up and building rapport over social media. – Anyway after the new year and the Trump becoming president I thought I share some recent arty, game asset updates for Chameleon Swing. We are well underway in finishing the special abilities to help people swing through the Madagascan jungle I have provided some of the (yawn, bore, grunt work, clean up – devil in the detail, final polish) sprite sheets the Chameleon( Were also in the process of changing Camill’s name – not catchy enough, it’s a good thing he hasn’t been Christened yet) with his horns and the suit of armour with our ace programmer adding extra spice with particle effect armour – ooohhhh! I know right!

In addition here are some extra art bits we will use for marketing, and that ugly word that everyone avoids but I like, Sell, Sell, Sell! So the first pic (Pic 1) is a pencil drawing and a complete line clean up in Gimp and the next stage will be biro inside the clean outline, rescanned, and cleaned – hopefully a new experimental piece and process in using traditional media, texture with the digital. (Pic 2) ZBrush 3D sculpt of Camill Chameleon – watch this space (Pic 3 & 4) Chameleon with horns and Chameleon in a suit of armour.

So folks that is it. Hope you like the delayyyyyed updates! Take care and a Happy New Year, Cheers

Swing through the Madagascan rainforest– NOT with rope, NOT with vines, BUT WITH TONGUE!

Guide Camill Chameleon from branch to branch, clocking up metres and snacking on bugs to gain new powers.

Let’s not forget those pesky lemurs, who knows what mood they’ll be in. Stay clear or prepare to be chucked into the jaws of death!

Chameleon Swing – mobile game, August 2016

‘LOOKS LIKE A BUG WAS IN HIS BRAIN, SIR!’ – Johnny Rico
(I can’t help thinking Starship Troopers when talking about ‘BUGS’)

Thinking bugs, naturally chameleons eat bugs so we needed to have something for Camil to collect on his travels through the rainforest. I strolled into the the children’s section in the local library, and grabbed all the available books for inspiration and reference. Going through each one I learnt new quick-fire facts and consumed a barrage of bright colourful images to stir those creative thoughts.

Character Game Concepts for the Lemur and Gecko in Chameleon Swing.

Those pesky Lemurs!! – they throw Camil Chameleon up into the clutches of the Eagle or down into the jaws of the Crocodile. Those Gecko’s are just as annoying – stunning you and making you fall to the ground with a thud

A Chameleon doesn’t leave one tree until he’s sure of another – Arabian Proverb

(Here is an additional concept board of numerous trees from the beginnings (left) and the final look (right) I must of lost count of how many drawings there were – that branch is too short, too long, too many leaves, not enough leaves, the trunk is too short, it needs variation…and so on. I think we got there in the end

Been busy at EGXRezzed promoting and showing our mobile game Chameleon Swing all drawn in Bic biro pen. Still lots to draw and sort out . Hopefully at sometime I can finish the Man-At-Arms sculpt?
