Blocka Chameleon
by ChaosMC
Blocka Chameleon turns a round of hide-and-seek into a disguise game, where players paint their bodies to blend into the world around them.
What it does
In the base game mode, one player plays the seeker and the rest hide by copying blocks in the world. A hider uses a paint tool to take on the look of a block, then holds still and tries to stay unnoticed. The seeker has a block tool, blockachameleon:seeker, to search the area. The mode is built around survival play and asks players to spot poses and textures the way a careful observer would.
The mod runs on Fabric with Fabric API as its one required dependency. A server running it needs every connecting player to have it too. Files are published for 26.1, 26.1.1 and 26.1.2, with 16.5.2 for 26.1.2 as the latest build, dated 2026-08-02. The mod is released under All rights reserved and is not open source. Its first build appeared on 2026-07-09, and the author notes that parts of its development used AI tools, mostly for a few helper features such as color picking, the color wheel and wireframe views.
Key features
Paint-to-blend hiding
Hiders apply a paint to their body so they match a chosen block and move through the world unseen.
Seeker block tool
A seeker block item, blockachameleon:seeker, lets the seeking player search for disguised hiders.
Color picking and wheel
Color picking, a color wheel and a wireframe view help players choose and check their paint.
Lag optimizations
Some changes reduce lag during play, though the author text does not describe them in detail.

How it compares
MC Chameleon is a Fabric mod for 26.2 under the MIT License and is open source; it is client and server. Chameleon: Camo Hide & Seek is a Fabric mod for 1.21.1 under All rights reserved, not open source, and runs client and server. Camo Craft targets 26.1.2 under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only and is open source, with client and server support. Blocka Chameleon covers the 26.1 builds instead, so it fits a 26.1 server.
