7 itemsAbout the Game

Myrmidon is a co-op puzzle-platformer inspired by stop-motion animated films. You and your teammate take on the roles of a seasoned animator and his new puppet in an adventure full of wonders.
What do you prefer: pulling off daring acrobatics under the spotlight, or pulling the strings of an imaginary world from behind the scenes?
Explore the world through two unique perspectives
THE ANIMATOR moves around the miniature sets of their studio in first-person view. They manipulate the set pieces to clear a path for the puppet.
THE PUPPET traverses the imaginary world inspired by the sets in third-person view. It performs the acrobatic sequences set up by its creator."
Work together to clear obstacles
The various dangers that stand in your way will challenge your ability to communicate with your teammate and synchronize your actions.
Will you trust your animator and take the leap of faith ? Will you be able to reliably spot your puppet and save it from a deadly fall?
NOTE: This game is co-op only : it requires both players to have an internet connection. Myrmidon does not include any in-game chat features : it is heavily recommended to use an external voice chat software.
