About This Game

Circuit Overload

Circuit Overload is a fast-paced bullet-hell arcade shooter set inside a living digital circuit.
You are an AI Core — the last stable node in a corrupted system — fighting off endless waves of viral entities determined to erase you.
Upgrade your abilities, unleash patterns of digital destruction, and survive as the grid collapses around you.

Each wave grows faster, deadlier, and more chaotic.
Adapt your build, master the timing of your attacks, and push your limits to achieve the highest possible score before the system overloads.

💿 Key Features

  • Intense bullet-hell combat filled with neon projectiles and explosions

  • Progressive upgrade system that lets you evolve your Core mid-battle

  • Dynamic wave system with escalating difficulty

  • Precise, responsive controls built for fast-reaction gameplay

  • Classic score-chasing arcade experience with local high-score tracking

  • Distinct pixel-art aesthetic inspired by retro circuit boards and cyber themes

Can an AI achieve perfection — or will it be consumed by the system it was built to protect?
