Fun little puzzle game, well worth the $5.. I love this game & so does everyone who gets to see me mini-rage every time I have to kill myself! LOL - Good Times & Good Fun! Definitely worth picking up.. A fun game in the 'grid-based puzzler' genre (a bit similar to boulderdash\/sokoban\/supaplex\/chip's challenge). Unlike most of the games in this genre, all the puzzles are on a single screen, but there is still plenty of complexity. Some of the levels are pretty tough, but it never feels unfair.. Circuit Dude is a pretty challenging puzzle game, and although it got me frustrated at times, I still continue coming back to it to have fun with the solutions! As of the time of this review, I only have 4 levels left in the whole game, but they are keeping me stuck for a little while.The graphics, music, and sound effects are all pretty simple for Circuit Dude, and do not drastically change. In fact, the game really seems to have one main song that plays on loop forever, and a handful of sound effects with certain objects. The graphics are a simple 2D style that I can't quite describe. Parts of it feel pixel-like, while other parts of it feel pretty clean.Similarly, although there seems to be a hidden story in the game, not much is really happening for the first half of the game (or even more). Most of the time it is just jumping into a level and the character describing something or making a general comment. The further into the game, some other things occur, but it's not like a steady flow of a plotline by any means.The main purpose of this game is, quite directly, the puzzles. Each level is a grid where you run across tiles and must place circuit chips into a bunch of sockets, then make your way to the exit. The first problem is that when you place a chip into a socket, you cannot walk across that tile anymore. Thus, you can cut yourself off from a pathway by placing down chips in the wrong order.The puzzles grow from here by adding many obstacles along the way. There are trap doors that open up into holes when you walk over them. There are boxes you need to push around, either to get out of the way or to help create a path. There are electric shock tiles that destroy you unless they are disabled. There are even conveyor belts, rotating pathways, teleporters, and a few other pieces.Many of those obstacles can even be interdependent inside of a level, meaning that you have to find your way through one path before you get through another path, or might have to run through different paths multiple times. But that is not always the case, as some levels allow a handful of ways to make your own way out.Because of the layout of the levels in the game, you really need to test your guesses over and over until you can start to plan things out and get used to the ways the obstacles interact.Even though Circuit Dude can be pretty difficult, I felt a sense of accomplishment the whole time that I have played, feeling like "I finally got through this level!" I might have taken a few breaks here and there, but I never stopped playing it fully, and am intending to finish the levels that I have remaining.If you are interested in how these puzzles sound, you should definitely give the game a try.. Circuit Dude certainly appears to be a derivative of Chip's Challenge, and it's a very, very good one. Unlike the expansive, booby-trapped environments in Chuck Sommerville's cult classic, the 100 levels in Circuit Dude are far more compact, taking up only one screen each. Dexterity is never put to the test; players don't need to fret about not moving fast enough to evade monsters as there are none present. The goal is to identify the correct route for the titular character to take in order to place all of the chips in the slots and reach the exit. It's a task that's easier said than done, as movement is not allowed on squares where chips were previously placed. The level designs remain fresh in spite of the relatively limited tile mechanics, which consist of conveyor belts, revolving gates, and other obstacles. The energetic, jovial chiptune soundtrack is exceptional and really motivates you to succeed.Circuit Dude - He's no dud!. Very fun! Highly addictive. Frustrating - but very satisfying when you figure a level out.. This is my favorite game on my Arduboy, and a great puzzle game in general. It's fun and challenging, a very solid and well made game.
