About

Circle of Chaos is a fast paced rogue-like with a loopy twist. You see, instead of being able to move freely, you are now bound to be inside of a loop, constantly having to move to dodge bullets, enemies and the deathwall (super dramatic I know)

Controls

Shoot = Left mouse click or space
Drag = Simply drag the player around the circle with the left mouse button.
Toggle music = M

Rarities

This was very unexplained inside of the game but the rarities are as following:

  • Common - White
  • Uncommon - Green
  • Rare - Orange
  • Legendary - Purple

Tips

  • Make sure to move around often as bullets and enemies arent that fast
  • Play with a mouse for the best experience
  • When dragging you have to start on the player, but as soon as you’ve started dragging the radius is very big!
  • Make sure to upgrade your life or shields before wave 10 as otherwise the dark blue enemies can one shot you
  • Every wave you get a heart AND a shield so consider upgrading your shield
  • Never pick white abilities. I really just added them to fill it up… I guess if you struggle with deathwall a lot it might be worth it though.
  • I personally recommend using one hand on the space and and another on the mouse

Install instructions

The .exe file isn't compressed, so simply downloading it and running it should work. You will most likely get a pop-up warning you that the file isn't safe. If so, hit Show More -> Run Anyways. This is because I don't own an official windows license.
