About the GameIntake is the new retro-futuristic drugstep arcade shooter from Cipher Prime. In this polychromatic love child of Dr. Mario and Ikaruga, you battle a never-ending barrage of pills, pushing your skill and reflexes to the limit to avoid a lethal dosage. Blast and combo your way through an epic cascade of audiovisual mayhem so intoxicating it comes with its own warning label.FEATURES
- Classic Arcade Shooter: From its aspect ratio to its fast-paced game play, Intake is directly inspired by classic arcade shooters and SHMUPs with just a hint of FPS love.
- Achievements: Over 70 finely tuned achievements that will teach even the most hardcore player new tricks. These are not your typical progress-only achievements.
- High Scoreboard and Game Stats: Keep track of your high scores and decimate your friends.
- Challenge Modes: Acceleration, Minefield, Reaction, and Flood modes will challenge every aspect of how you play.
- Gameplay Changing Features: Grab vitamins while you play and trade them in for intense game upgrades. You can even turn the game into a SHMUP if you show your skills.
- Dubstep Soundtrack: Infinite wubs. Classy ones.
- Colorblind Modes: Intake offers colorblind modes for players with deuteranopia, protanopia, and tritanopia.
- Full Steam Support

There's no way such a simple one-screen score attack game where enemies shaped like pills fall from the top of the screen and you click on them to destroy them can actually be this much fun right?
Well, it's actually a bit more interesting than that, as enemies come in two colours (changing from level to level) while the player is allowed to swap between them at will. Match the colour of enemies as you click on them, and you can build combo for better score; match the colour of enemies that fall off screen and your shield will destroy them (thus you only lose lives if an enemy of the opposite colour ends up getting through)
As you play you accumulate a currency you can use to unlock extra songs, buy upgrades, challenge modes and perhaps most importantly fun and powerful arcadey powerups which can then randomly spawn during play. This makes what would otherwise be minimalist gameplay become surprisingly varied instead, doubly so as challenge levels with various gimmicks are occasionally introduced into your run every 5 or so levels.
While the theme is purposely goofy and the EDM soundtrack not to everyone's taste, Intake is very polished, paced and balanced just right, and ultimately way more fun than it has any right to be.

Really good arcade light gun game with item upgrades.
*Played using Sinden Lightgun (requires third part patch)

not sure if it's worth $9.99, but it's a good time killer and, despite pretty simple gameplay, it'll take time to get good at it

Creative and fun!
