May 12, 2015.
On this beautiful day, we released the game that would later become the very foundation of USC: Counterforce.

Ultimate Space Commando established in 2015 most of what makes USC: Counterforce a deeply satisfying strategy game in 2023:
  • Deeply configurable squads assembled by the player,
  • Destructible and interactive environments,
  • Many different weapons, tools, and items to tackle every situation in any way you want,
  • Blueprints and crafting mechanics to upgrade your gear,
  • Tense sci-fi setting inspired by Aliens,
  • A semi-randomized, multi-ended solo campaign,
  • And so on!

At the time, Aliza Wenders was the only person working on Ultimate Space Commando.

Today she still is the lead developer at Angry Cat Studios and directing USC: Counterforce, but now has new marines to help her:
  • Csaba Bak, who joined as a junior Game Designer and Tester
  • Firesquid, as a Publisher and helping with the production

With this extra help, USC: Counterforce will become this better, bigger, and deeper version of Ultimate Space Commando!
