Kameo

Thoughts go out to those laid off, especially those at Rare. Shits fucked

A cartoon fridge door with Fan Art Friday in colourful magnets. A framed photo on the right shows a pensive skeletal pirate with a fancy hat, looking with great interest at a cloudy red orb. One might say he's pondering it. Text reads: Art by PICOID, picoid.bsky.social‬.

A cartoon fridge door with Fan Art Friday in colourful magnets. A framed photo on the right shows the elf character Kameo. She has dark hair, an ornate headband, more jewellery around her neck and a green outfit. Not to mention pointy ears, but you might have got that from 'elf'. Text reads: Art by Rafael Motta, rafamotta.bsky.social‬.

Year's 50% done! But before the downward trot towards another tick of the Gregorian calendar, have a #FanArtFriday distraction. Yes, forget the passage of time briefly with Bluesky beauts: SeaOfThieves' Flameheart by @picoid.bsky.social and Kameo from @rafamotta.bsky.social. Right, back to it.

Fuck you Microsoft

concept art of ortho from Kameo 2. he looks very sad, like me whenever I think of what could have been

Why is Kameo so cursed. You’re telling me I gotta live thru not one but TWO Kameo 2 cancellations?????
My Gwimbly deserves better :,(

"I bet they're over generalizing. It probably doesn't look that much like Kameo."

*Watches video*

Would love some guests! Something i know a lot of fans would wanna see is more behind the scenes stuff (footage/concept art/etc), especially from the GameCube version from the game.

Of course any more concept art/videos of Kameo 2 would be cool too if there are any

As to how I'll celebrate Kameo's 20th Anniversary, I'm not sure yet. Doing commentaries again feels like it'd be of little use... But maybe livestreaming? Answering community questions, perhaps seeing if I can get some guests involved?

Hmm...

I don’t care if I have to learn machine code and do the work myself- WE WILL GET KAMEO ON PC

youtu.be/hqpw-QPsdCg?...

fingers crossed for recomps of these if 360 stuff is on the table

Absolutely interested! I’m especially curious regarding any post-vol. 1 material that may have been produced before it was canceled (if anything even exists of course)

Thanks for posting this!!

More video game history from storage stuff.

I believe this is an early dev-only initial preview of the Kameo manga.

Launch game for the 360 from Rare that actually started as an N64 game.

kameo huddled around with the main 4 elemental warriors: rubble chills pummel weed and ash. Kameo’s left hand is petting chilla’s arm who is sorta wrapped around her, ash’s head rests on Kameo’s neck

same as first but in a frame

same as first but shot from an angle

all hail the best Kameo artist Eddie Sharam (and thanks to Chris Chamberlain for posting from his collection)

if anybody is selling old artworks of Kameo i will buy my soul IS available as a payment option

Penny tells sheldor to stfu and gtfo of this store she has shoplifted copies of Kameo and viva pinate in her bag. the unshoplifted copy of Kameo and her mother, the Kameo poster judge from a distance

The back of the Nintendo GameCube box at its launch in 2001. Includes a quote by Shigeru Miyamoto and screenshots of Super Smash Bros. Melee, Donkey Kong Racing, Eternal Darkness, Pikmin, Luigi's Mansion, Wave Race: Blue Storm, Kameo: Elements of Power, Star Fox Adventures, Star Wars Rogue Squadron II: Rogue Leader, and NBA Courtside 2002.

BORN TO PLAY "What if everything you see is more than what you see-the person next to you is a warrior and the space that appears empty is a secret door to another world? What if something appears that shouldn't? You either dismiss it, or you accept that there is much more to the world than you think. Perhaps it really is a doorway, and if you choose to go inside, you'll find many unexpected things." - Shigeru Miyamoto

We used to make fun of the quote by Miyamoto on the back of the GameCube box, a romantic and flowery view of video games... but he was right and we were being cynical teenage assholes. Fans SHOULD feel as if games are magical. Why be so coldly academic about something that's supposed to bring joy?

they could have had Arkane Austin make a single player RPG now that those are blowing up again but nah let’s have Microsoft Sam create a hallucination of Kameo

Don't you dare turn your eyes away from history, even the awful, scary parts. If you don't watch it with your own eyes, you rely on others to tell you what you saw. We must all bear witness to what's coming

a good game can turn into a great game if it sucks a little bit in an interesting way

Hi #PortfolioDay
I'm nono!
I draw game fan art and OCs.
I mainly draw digital art, but recently I've also been posting ink art here.
I hope you are interested in my art.

Do you know whatever happened to the future issues of the manga? Obviously here in the West it got cancelled, but im curious if anything further got published over in Japan/any evidence of future issues existing?
(jealous of your faceplate btw, looks immaculate!)

A silver Xbox 360 faceplate with art of Kameo, Kalus and Thorn.

One-of-a-kind, handmade Xbox 360 Kameo faceplate made using art based on the manga.

"Your family betrayed you, Kalus. Chose an orphan over their own blood."

I know the anatomy and wings are kinda sucky, but I wanted to practice face stuff + drawing emotions

Concepts I made for a theoretical Viva Piñata sequel 🪅 this game deserves a modern remake #art #digitalart #conceptart #vivapinata #gameart

White DVD-R with the Microsoft logo and CONFIDENTIAL printed on it. It has the text Kameo: Elements of Power and is dated 6/20/04.

Keeping up with Random Game Saturday, here is an Xbox build of Kameo on official Microsoft media. It’s not retail (obviously) but is for the OG Xbox. Originally got this when I wrote the strategy guide. Just found it in a random box while organizing today. Wonder if it still works.

Was exploring the internet today and found a site that has a wide variety of high quality renders/concept art for Kameo: Elements of Power (some of which I've never seen before!). Can explore the site for yourself here, but here are some of my faves from the site:

It’s Saturday, post a random game in your collection

Playing Kameo for the first time. Man, I would have eaten this game up if it had released on GameCube.
