Battle Circuit

Battle Circuit is a side-scrolling 2D comic (manga) style beat'em-up in a futuristic science fiction setting. A group of bounty hunters must capture the mad scientist Dr. Saturn with a giant head. The player can choose from 5 characters: Cyber Blue, a human bounty hunter with cybernetic appendages on his body; Captain Silver, a humanoid shape-shifting hunter who has the ability to fling ice particles from his body; Pink Ostrich, a large sentient pink ostrich that is always accompanied by its owner, a young girl named Pola Abdul; Yellow Iris, a part-time model with claws; and Alien Green, a space creature that looks like a giant moving plant. The gameplay is pretty typical for the genre, like in Final Fight, Streets of Rage or Cadillacs and Dinosaurs - players go to the right, defeat enemies (the player has access to different attacks), collect bonuses and money and fight bosses, for example, Dr. Saturn and his robots. The player's abilities can be expanded by buying special "upgrade discs" after completing the levels with coins obtained from dead enemies.
