Team fights and solo runs
Counterpact is a 2D platform-shooter from Little Egg Basket where two teams clash, or one player takes on the Gilded Spire alone. The team side is built around crushing the opposing team with your allies. The solo side sends you through four floors of bulky enemies and traps, with riches waiting if you make it through. Blinding difficulty raises the challenge and the rewards, and Gilded Gauntlets sit beyond that for players who want to test themselves further.
Seven characters with their own mechanics
Every character plays differently. Shiniko the Reaper is a glass cannon: high damage, low health, close-range attacks, and a Dash to move around or through enemies. SYS.TR the Bulwark takes hits and channels the damage she receives into powerful auras with Rerouted Power. Beyond the starting loadout, each character has a range of alternate weapons, some of which change their role while keeping core mechanics intact. More weapons get added over time.
Customization and trading
Playing earns Eclipsium, which buys weapons and cosmetics. There are over 200 cosmetics to collect, including outfits, pets that follow you, chairs to sit on, and emotes to taunt with. No microtransactions are involved. If an item you want is hard to get, you can trade with other players.
