How co-op works
Online co-op campaign where players harvest mutant body parts during combat and swap them onto their characters for immediate tactical advantages, sharing the chaos of adapting loadouts faster than enemies evolve.
About this game
SWAPMEAT is a body-horror action shooter built around one dangerous idea: every alien you kill can become part of you. Players rip through hostile alien worlds, harvesting mutant limbs, torsos, and heads mid-fight to transform their abilities on the fly. Triple-jump legs, turret-dropping torsos, and grenade-launching turkey heads are just a few of the grotesque upgrades waiting to be stolen from the enemy.

Combat is fast, messy, and experimental. You are constantly deciding which alien to hunt next, which body part to sacrifice, and how your new anatomy changes your role in the fight. Every harvest reshapes your movement, firepower, and support options, forcing you and your co-op partner to communicate which parts you are grabbing and which threats you can now handle.
The game rewards adaptability and quick decision-making. Sessions push you to survive waves of mutating enemies by out-evolving them, turning their strengths into your toolkit. Cross-platform online co-op support makes it easy to team up across Windows and Mac, letting you and a friend experiment with bizarre body-part combinations as you carve through each alien ecosystem.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the body part harvesting work in co-op?
During combat, you and your co-op partner can harvest limbs, torsos, and heads from defeated aliens and immediately swap them onto your characters. Each body part grants unique abilities like triple-jump legs or turret-dropping torsos. You'll need to communicate with your partner about which parts you're grabbing so you can coordinate your new abilities and cover different combat roles.
Can I play SWAPMEAT with a friend on a different platform?
Yes, SWAPMEAT supports cross-platform multiplayer between Windows and Mac via online co-op, so you can team up with friends regardless of which platform they're on.
Is co-op required or can I play solo?
SWAPMEAT supports both single-player and online co-op. You can play through the game alone, but co-op adds a layer of strategy as you and a partner can experiment with different body part combinations and coordinate your evolving abilities against enemy waves.
Do different body parts actually change how I play?
Yes, each harvested body part transforms your abilities and combat role. For example, certain legs change your movement and jump capabilities, torsos can deploy turrets or provide different support options, and heads like the grenade-launching turkey head add new offensive firepower. You're constantly reshaping your playstyle based on what you harvest.
