    Chameleon Run Progress?



    How the heck is someone tapping so fast with two fingers to be able to change colours and jump at the same time.


    I'm currently at level 1-11 (all marbles collected) prior levels all completed except for speed runs.

    My speed for level 1-3 is at 0:12.734 need to get to 0:10.800 to complete speed challenge.

    How is everyone else doing that is playing?

    I deleted this game after a few goes,lol my fingers arnt as fast as they used to be

    The game looks good and I went on the Play Store to look at it, only to see I already have it installed! I must have installed it from looking at this thread and totally forgot about it!
    I've still yet to play it, obviously!!

    This is a great app for anyone thinking of getting a new phone,just type in the model and it gives all the specs,release date,price etc.theres even a function to compare specs of 2 different phones at a glance.simple and quick to use and clutter free.

    I finished the stages in Chameleon Run out of stubbornness but I hated it as a game. It is challenging and hard but completely devoid of fun in a later levels. It has a great feel to it early on but once you need to start changing colors it becomes a case of having run the level enough times to more or less know the path. It becomes completely devoid of fun and sucks any joy right out of the game.

    Edit: - Just noticed level 1-13 is called "AUTO SWITCH", so you need to complete that level to be able to complete the earlier speed runs!
    Edit 2: - Above doesn't effect the game as I thought!

    I'm currently at level 1-11 (all marbles collected) prior levels all completed except for speed runs.

    My speed for level 1-3 is at 0:12.734 need to get to 0:10.800 to complete speed challenge.

    It's a very challenging game. I completed phase 1 but the last level took some major effort.

    Haven't tried phase 2 properly yet but imagine it will be impossible!

    Currently stuck trying to get through level 1-14!

    Edit: Managed to get to the End of that level, but still need to repeat for Marbles etc!

    Have fun with 1-15 so.... That took me a long time to clear!

    Stuck on 2-2 now but haven't spent too much time at it (yet!)

    Very good game, just about on the cusp of being too hard (for me)


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,596 ✭✭✭lassykk


    A productive lunch time has seen me finish the levels.

    Not sure if I have the motivation to collect all the marbles, etc on each level though
    The last level is a huge let down!

    Except for the Speed Challenge (which probably impossible), I have been completing all the challenges (Marbles, Crystals and not changing color), for each level before starting the next! Just completed 1-14! That way the path through the level is still fresh, even with the changes to route needed for each challenge!

    Just completed 1-15 level (all marbles), your correct it is a tricky level. But once you get the right rhythm of it, you can fly through it. Back to it to get crystals etc!

    Edit: - Completed the challenges for that level (except speed)! Level 2-1 looks to be a though level!

    I played the game a different way to you so... I only went back or get marbles when I couldn't start the next level without having enough chameleons (that's a weird sentence!)

    I've no hope of doing the speed ones but that video you linked to - I can't reproduce that speed on any level so not sure if I'm missing something.

    I'll settle for all marbles and no colour switch on all levels to keep me engaged with the game but I'm only up to 1-15 on that.

    Unfortunately to ununstall built-in apps you'd need to root

    Did you allow it location permissions, and do you have location turned on on your device? No problems here.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,575 ✭✭✭Testament1


    Yeah had all that on from the start. It's picking up my proper location, don't know what caused it to glitch out earlier.

    Looks like Google Assistant has rolled out here as it's showing for me with English UK language on the keyboard.

    So you can switch language back and get rid of those dodgy US spellings!

    Going to miss the handy feature of being able to select text in Google Now from images or on apps that didn't let you copy. I had stuck with Google Now after testing GA for a bit.


    Did Gboard stop auto capitalising 'i' for every one else a while ago?

    Not sure if it all started when i tested the GA app.
