Meccha Chameleon has sold over 7 million units on Steam, holds a 'Very Positive' rating from over 17,000 reviews, and is receiving ongoing updates including a Japan-themed map and map randomization. The developer has warned about impersonation accounts and fake GitHub profiles.
The hide-and-seek game Meccha Chameleon, developed by LEMORION, has seen explosive growth since its release in mid-June 2026. Within 10 days, sales surpassed 5 million units, with a peak of over 240,000 concurrent players on Steam and a 'Very Positive' rating from over 10,000 reviews. Just three days later, on June 22, LEMORION announced sales had topped 7 million units, and the concurrent player peak had risen to 340,000. The game's simple concept-painting one's body to blend into backgrounds-has driven adoption among streamers and VTubers.
The developer has been releasing frequent updates. On June 18, a new 'Sugar Land' map was added. On June 22, LEMORION said an official Japan-themed map would arrive within a day or two. Update 2.2.0, released around June 28, introduced randomization to the Hide-and-Seek Mansion map, with plans to extend it to all maps. The update also added larger body sizes for the Cube character and fixed several bugs.
LEMORION has addressed community safety concerns. The creator, Remorion, warned about fake SNS accounts impersonating the official account and stated that the only official Discord is the one listed on the Steam store page. The developer also said they have not created a GitHub account, cautioning users about fake accounts. LEMORION stated on X that they are not currently seeking a publisher and that streaming is permitted under Steam guidelines. The game is available on PC via Steam.
