Formicide Server Hosting, Explained
New to Formicide?
What is Formicide?
Formicide is a free, fast-paced 2D online platformer from Rock Wall Games. Two teams of ants fight over control point beacons in destructible terrain, in matches of 5 to 10 minutes. Pick one of 8 classes, such as the tough soldier, the cloaking hunter or the turret-building engineer, and choose its ultimate ability. Dig a path through the ground toward your enemies, or pile up dirt for cover.
Destructible Terrain.
Blast a tunnel to the enemy, or build a barricade of dirt to hold a beacon.
Random Events.
Powerups make bombs rain from the sky or send hunter worms after the other team.
Why run your own server?
Formicide Dedicated Servers
Hosting from the game client means your PC has to stay in the match, and your router may need its ports forwarded first. A dedicated server gives your group a fixed place to meet that is online around the clock. You set its name, password and player limit, pick the maps it plays and how teams are chosen, and your friends drop in whenever they are ready.
Always Online.
Your server keeps running when the host logs off.
Your Rules.
Pick your maps, map order and how players join teams.
