OGW Megane with 6,435,787 got a Gold Chip AND Scrap!
cadoresgares with 4,312,727 got a Gold Chip!
brightshadow with 2,966,928 got a Silver Chip!
While they didn't make it into the top 3, DW and xiomeilin were close, and got a Copper Chip for their trouble!
We did have one disconnect in one of the games, so as a consolation prize Bullway received a Silver Chip! We're also diving deep into the logs to find the issue and make the netcode more resilient.
The Autoeye was blasted so hard it didn't see what hit it!
Stay tuned for the next scheduled game!
See you out there pilots! o7

Announcing Outpost Ginga

Hello everyone!
We are excited to officially announce our upcoming title, Outpost Ginga.
While CounterAttack: Uprising put you in the cockpit, Outpost Ginga moves you to the command center. This is a single-player, tactical Spiral Tower Defense game set in the same universe, focused on deep weapon customization and resource management.
During the Automaton War, when Outpost Ginga was attacked, the command and control room was never recovered. Long assumed destroyed by the Automatons, it actually escaped into the depths of space by initiating an uncalculated FTL jump. Now, with no idea where they are, the crew must fight to survive against a strange new enemy.
The "Attachment System" Returns
If you enjoyed tinkering with ship builds in CounterAttack, you will feel right at home here. We have reintroduced and adapted the reagent-based Attachment System for Outpost Ginga.
Instead of ships, you will be customizing Four Core Turret Types (Blaster, Missile, Laser, and Plasma) and Support Wings. With millions of potential configurations through deep-tier attachments, you can create unique and chaotic combinations to defend your station.
The station can use various Ultimates, some from CounterAttack, and some new ones as well!
Join the Closed Beta
We are opting for a Closed Beta rather than Early Access. We want to work closely with a dedicated group of testers to polish the balance and mechanics before the full Q3/Q4 2026 launch.
How to join:
Discord: Join our Discord Server (also linked on the store page) and check the announcements channel.
Email: You can also contact us directly at

to request access.

The store page is live! If you enjoy deep customization and tactical defense, please head over and add it to your wishlist. It helps us out immensely.

Thank you for your continued support!

A lesser used feature of CounterAttack: Uprising is the very large online rooms. By default rooms for up to 8 players can be created, but by using the command "/foursquared" you can set the limit to 16. It's also possible to go higher, with the theoretical max being 99.
This Saturday, 27th of September, I'll host some 32 or 64 player online games. Lets see how high it can go! The games will be open to cross-platform, so join with any system. I'll have the room open at least 30 mins before and aim to start the games at the following times:
11:00 (11am) PST
13:00 (1pm) PST
18:00 (6pm) PST
20:00 (8pm) PST
As an added bonus, I'll hand out some CounterAttack Steam items to the highest scoring pilots.
