CounterAttack: Uprising coming to Nintendo Switch!

Hello Pilots!

Today I am happy to announce CounterAttack will be coming to the Nintendo Switch eShop! This will happen along with the previously mentioned content update bringing new levels and attachments.



CounterAttack has come a long way since it first released on Steam. New levels, attachments, improved menus, improved level editor and campaign editor, and more fixes than I could count. To commemorate the long journey here, and the new Nintendo Switch launch, we're adding the 'Uprising' moniker.
