Chameleon Twist 2 is a quirky 3D platformer released for the Nintendo 64 in 1999 by Japan System Supply and Sunsoft. You control a backpack-wearing chameleon navigating colorful environments using a unique, physics-based tongue mechanic. Instead of relying on traditional jumps, you use your character’s long tongue to swing across large gaps, pole-vault over hazards, and swallow enemies to spit them out as projectiles.
How to Play
Navigate through the varied stages to reach the end and defeat the boss, while searching for hidden coins and carrots to unlock alternate costumes and mini-games. In the browser emulator, the N64 analog stick is mapped to your Arrow keys. The X and Z keys function as the A and B buttons. Use Enter for Start and the Shift or Ctrl keys for shoulder and Z-trigger inputs.
Tips
- Your tongue can be anchored to the special colored poles scattered throughout levels. Practice swinging and vaulting, as maintaining momentum is key to crossing larger gaps.
- When you swallow multiple enemies at once, you spit them out as a much larger, more powerful projectile that can clear out crowds or deal heavy damage to bosses.
- If you encounter a rabbit offering a practice course, take the opportunity! If you decline, you won’t be able to visit that specific bonus course again during your playthrough.
- Aim to collect all 20 coins in a stage to unlock new costumes, which can be selected from the level select screen.
