Circus Interstellar

About

Circus Interstellar is a chaotic arcade shooter that swaps outer space for a gory circus. You play as a survivor battling grotesque alien clowns in fast paced gunplay. The game blends co op split screen modes with wave based combat set to a synth driven soundtrack. Each level throws increasingly absurd weapons and hazards at players as they fight to escape the intergalactic death trap. The game’s quirky art style and relentless action stand out. Community reviews highlight its addictive 80s inspired music and surprisingly solid multiplayer physics. While not deep by modern standards the split screen mode and over the top clown enemies keep it memorable. Released in 2018 it still draws praise for its frenetic energy and retro arcade charm.

Storyline
