A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux

The Basics

In Intestine Strike, you play as a hungry little tapeworm attempting to navigate its host's intestinal tract. You win when you complete the final stage.

(it might be "little" now, but just you wait...) 

Along the way, you will collect  Evolution Points that you can spend on various upgrades, including extending the tapeworm's body, swapping out its body segments, and installing modules that augment its parasitic capabilities.

Control the worm like so:

  1. W: Move worm up.
  2. S: Move worm down.
  3. Left click: Fire active modules.

Enemies

Along your travels through the host's intestinal tract, you'll encounter several foes:

 Granulocytes: Slow and easy to kill. Fodder for a competent tapeworm.

 Lymphocytes: Slow, but hard to kill and deal significant damage. Use care when getting close.

 Monocytes: Extremely fast, but give a large Evolution Points reward if killed.

Each enemy has weaknesses to certain turret types. Read module descriptions to learn more.
