About This Game

Circuit Overload

Circuit Overload is a fast-paced arcade bullet-hell shooter built around precision, escalation, and pure action.

You control a combat unit inside a hostile digital environment, facing endless waves of enemies and increasingly complex attack patterns. The longer you survive, the faster and more chaotic the screen becomes — pushing your reflexes, positioning, and decision-making to the limit.

Each run is about adaptation and optimization. Choose upgrades on the fly, shape your build mid-run, and find synergies that help you survive just a little longer. There is no safe point — pressure constantly ramps up until the system reaches critical overload.

Circuit Overload focuses on tight controls, visual clarity under chaos, and classic score-driven arcade gameplay. How far you get — and how high you score — depends entirely on skill, timing, and smart build choices.
