From how colorful and cartoonish this beat-em-up felt I was sure that it must have been based on a comic-book but it ain't. Battle Circuit is simply 90s video game madness set on an alternate future Earth where you play as eccentric bounty hunters sent on a mission through various city environments to retrieve a disc containing a dangerous computer program.
It's a lot of fun, but the collision detection was a little too precise. If you're just one pixel off none of your attacks will connect, which is especially infuriating when you are at half-life and see an energy boost at the other side of the screen. You'll never make it as the enemies will just swarm you and kill you before you reach it. You're best option is just to spam the special attack button all the way through the game, which gets tiresome after a while, no matter how colorful the graphics are.
A revision of this game would be awesome, but as it is it's still a lively 90s arcade actioner.
