Outpost Ginga
SteamOutpost Ginga follows the events of an experimental research and production space station that was attacked at the beginning of the Automaton War. While the bulk of the station was captured by the abhorrent Automatons the control center managed to make an uncalculated emergency spatial jump at the very last moment, becoming lost in the vastness of space.

Outpost Ginga is a spiral Tower Defence with powerful ultimates and a deep customization system by way of Attachments. Millions of possible weapon combinations means there's countless ways to beat each level, allowing for creative and crazy approaches.

Build and Upgrade several aspects of your space station including Turrets, Modules, and Support Craft using the familiar Attachments system from CounterAttack: Uprising. Mix together attachments like reagents to create unique and powerful combinations. Explore 3 chapter campaign with a total of 30 levels as well as an endless survival mode.

There are 4 turrets; Blaster, Missile, Laser, and Plasma. Each turret has an innate strength and weakness. Blasters are cheap and have the highest DPS, but horrible aim. Missiles are homing and rarely miss, but have significantly less DPS than blasters. Lasers are the highest DPS base turret, though also the shortest range. Plasma is decent damage with extreme range, though very expensive.

Turrets can be directly upgraded, directly increasing damage and stats or customized with attachments. The robust attachment systems allows for deep turret customization. Attachments can completely change how turrets work, introducing new strengths and weaknesses. By using combinations some weaknesses can be turned into strengths, and ridiculous combos can change how the game is played. Break away from the turret playstyle with Support Fighters. Instead of turrets, build a wing of spacecraft to defend yourself which you can further customize or upgrade how you see fit.

When enough isn't enough it's time to use an Ultimate. There are several kinds of Ultimate abilities from barrages of homing missiles to incredibly destructive Meson Shockwaves.
