A Game & Watch styled game that deserves to be commended for what it is, a nostalgic throwback to the early 1980ies, Very simple gameplay but not necessarily very easy either.
That game could have been a Game & Watch game and would be wonderful with the 2 buttons. It even tells the time (why would you check on the game, tho).
I.F.O. is a fun little endless arcade shmup in an old school handheld art style. The game is inspired by Time Pilot from the arcade. Two buttons for rotating your plane clockwise and counterclockwise. Press both buttons to dash, it will also activate the drill. Shoot UFOs and safe animals with all kinds of weapons you can upgrade by picking up aliens.
When you kill UFOs in short succession you'll increase your combo for a higher score with a max of 40.
After a certain amount of kills you'll get a warning for an animal abduction in progress. It's either a sheep or a cow with a letter on it referring to the weapon you'll get when you save it. A cow will restore a life. A sheep will grant you a quarter of a heart, when you get 4 heart pieces you get an extra life and your max lives will increase by one.
Some of the weapons are great like the Machine Gun, 3-Way and Homing Missile, others are alright like the Back Shot, Drill and Laser. The Floating Mines and the Rocket are bit of a pain. What you can do is of course ignore weapons you don't like but you can also stay in the vicinity while killing UFOs to make the subsequent abduction spawn quicker and rescue the animals in short succession. When you move too far away from an abduction it will disappear!
When you destroy a UFO it emits an alien you can pick up. Some enemies emit more aliens. Picking up aliens increases the level of your weapon temporarily, you start at level 0 and can increase it to level 3. If you haven't picked up an alien for a while your weapon drops to level 0 again.
Base point value of enemies/rescues multiplied by the combo.
UFO=10
Falcon=80
Rocket=100
Rescue=500
Challenging and addictive! No Steam leaderboard unfortunately, just an online top ten in game.

Nice game to play casually. 10/10
I.F.O is a simple Shoot-em-Up game that is a take on the Game & Watch style of games...
You can find about 8 minutes of gameplay with commentary here:

I.F.O is a simple game, where you fly around and shoot at alien ships to increase your high score. The controls are simple with the ability to either turn left or right. If you press both keys at the same time you get a speed boost.
You start with a basic machine gun, which can be upgraded by collecting the aliens that drop from the spaceships you destroy. The more you collect, the more your level will increase - up to a maximum of level 3. With each level the speed of your shots increase (the game shoots for you), while at max level your weapon gets an additional boost. There is a time limit on upgrades, so you need to keep collecting aliens or you go back to level 0 power.
The weapons themselves range from the machine gun, to a laser, homing missiles and a drill. So far I have seen 9 different weapon types or varying effectiveness. For me the homing missile is best as its fire and forget, so I can concentrate on not dying. These are chosen by collecting animals that are carryed by alien ships. On the side of either a Cow or Sheep there is a letter (or number) that represents what gun you will switch too when you save them.
You get 3 lives to begin with, which can be replenished by saving an cow or sheep. Lives are lost if you are hit by an enemy shot, or if you accidentally run into an alien ship.
The art style is attractive (IMO), and is reminiscent of Game & Watch handhelds. The enemy's remind me of the sprites you would find on these systems. There is also an option (left mouse click or A on the xbox controller) to have the screen clear or more of an "aged" look. This helps bring a little more authenticity to the look of the game. The rest of the screen also matches Game & Watch handhelds with the button and screen layout.
I am happy recommend I.F.O, the gameplay is simple but I feel it does it well. Turns can be quick and even a good run may only last a few minutes. The only negative I feel is the price might be a bit steep for some if they dont have Game & Watch nostalgia - a 2.99 price point would have been more accurate and help garner more sales. If price is an issue, perhaps add it to a wishlist and wait for a sale.
