From One More Game:
Join the ranks of Rangus Meats and experience relentless action co-op combat where every kill makes you stronger... and stranger. The Early Access version includes two solar systems (with three planets in each, for a total of six unique planets), up to four-player co-op multiplayer, four main difficulty levels (Easy, Normal, Hard and Nightmare - which has ten additional levels), and a ‘Random Solar Systems’ mode – a replayable experience designed to keep players engaged long after finishing the campaign. Through Nov. 1, the game will be $19.99 reflecting a 20% discount (regular MSRP $24.99).
Those who purchase the game during Early Access will receive the SWAPMEAT Founder’s Edition, offering exclusive items before the game's full release. The Founder’s Edition includes one game key, an exclusive set of three in-game cosmetics (a Golden Spatula, "Carl's Golden Antenna Bobber”, and the “Alt-Comedian Mask Head”), access to the "SWAPMEAT: Rare & Questionable Cuts” musical companion, and the ability to preview an upcoming solar system ahead of its official release. The “Rare & Questionable Cuts” concept album can also be purchased separately on Steam for $9.99 and features a collection of 10 ridiculous anthems inspired by the skewed world of SWAPMEAT.
“We can't wait for even more players to get their hands on SWAPMEAT and have fun,” said Jamie Stormbreaker, Founder and Game Director at One More Game. “Our meat-swapping mechanic is precisely what makes the game stand out as a one of a kind roguelite co-op third person shooter. This is just the foundation, as we'll continue to experiment with new content and engage with our global community throughout Early Access to refine, balance, and polish as we work toward a full release."
Early Access marks the next step for SWAPMEAT in One More Game's ongoing Alpha-Driven Development process and represents the culmination of feedback from thousands of global players across several ‘Meat Lab’ playtests spanning two years. This approach has enabled One More Game to collaborate via early and frequent playtesting, listening to and iterating on player feedback in real-time while improving and enhancing the game hand-in-hand with the SWAPMEAT community. Early Access now opens the doors to an expanded player base where the developers can continue to gather feedback at scale, measure balance, stress test systems, and ultimately lock the game's complete vision, shaped in part by player engagement and input.
Stormbreaker added, “Building SWAPMEAT through our Alpha-Driven Development approach has truly created a better game experience as we work closely with our community to listen and address their feedback. We are grateful for their support, as that collaboration is at the core of how we make games. SWAPMEAT reflects our vision and our community’s feedback, which has helped shape every weapon, ability, and system that players will experience.”
In SWAPMEAT, players step into the boots of Meat Scientists working for Rangus Meats™, a galaxy-spanning megacorp whose innovations may or may not have triggered a galactic crisis. Your mission? Rip through hostile alien worlds, engage in exhilarating third-person combat, harvest DNA samples from the locals, and extract the planets’ meat cores. Whether solo or with an up to four-player co-op squad, you’ll battle through hordes of aliens, mutants, murderous robots, and beefy bosses for their meaty trophies.
As you loot and swap body parts – from heads and legs to torsos – you’ll enhance your character with game-changing abilities and optional upgrades, switching up playstyles on the fly using Rangus Meats’ patented Smart Meat technology. Every alien you harvest gives you new body parts with unique powers — triple-jump legs, turret-dropping torsos, grenade-launching turkey heads – just to name a few. Each fleshy extremity changes how you fight. Time is never on your side. The pressure never stops. Learn to live in the chaos or get — quite literally — torn apart by it.
Key Features:
Swap on the Fly: Rip, swap, and mutate mid-combat. Every limb and extremity you graft changes your strategy instantly. Rapid adaptation isn't optional — it's a matter of survival. There are over 3,000 meat combinations available. Every part you graft changes your strategy instantly. Adaptation isn't optional — it's a matter of survival. Equip Squat Daddy legs to jump and butt-slam enemies, or an Octo Swirl head that shoots in all directions, or a Stellar Chef torso that grants barrier shields to your squad.
Fast, Relentless Combat: SWAPMEAT forces improvisation in ways not yet seen in traditional roguelites — you work with what drops and learn to thrive in unpredictability, while under constant siege by alien weirdos. Waves of screwball enemies never stop coming. You dodge, shoot, and swap your way through escalating chaos while racing against time to complete objectives and bring back vital Meat Cores for Carl’s ongoing Smart Meat™ experimentations.
Built for Co-Op (1–4 Players): Solo or squad, SWAPMEAT's got something for everyone. Rip through the galaxy alone, or summon your bravest buddies to face the chaos together. With dynamically scaling difficulty, the game gets harder when players join and easier when they leave.
Roguelite Replayability: Each mission throws new enemies, random events, and unexpected part combinations at you. No two runs are ever the same. Every death teaches you something new.
Permanent Upgrades Between Runs: Bring your research back to HQ and cash it in for weapon unlocks, new perks, and company-approved improvements.
Hostile Alien Worlds: Explore a series of ever-stranger worlds, from an urban speedway thick with hungry mutant speedsters to a planetary cookout overrun by hostile aliens. Battle across bizarre, vivid landscapes strewn with the ruins of galactic capitalism.
