Just like the rest of the world, Singapore is experiencing their own lockdown, aptly named Circuit Breaker, during this Covid-19 pandemic. One Singaporean gamer has been making full use of his time indoors by creating his own RPG, Circuit Breaker Run.
Justin Hui, a Singaporean father who always wanted to make his own video game, started learning how to utilise RPG Maker MV to make his own game based on his experiences while in lockdown.
Circuit Breaker Run has you braving the streets of Singapore, avoiding the Enforcers patrolling the land while you obtain essential items from the supermarket for your family.
It’s a quaint and quirky title, and a fun and interactive take on the current state of the world, with some jabs at Hui’s own country of residence, Singapore.
One mechanic of Circuit Breaker Run has you avoiding fines from the Enforcers, with monetary penalties being somewhat of a recurring joke in Singapore, a country known for imposing heavy fines on everything from loitering to littering.
Hui has said that the game took about 40 to 50 hours of on-the-fly learning of RPG Maker MV, which he did so in his free time during the lockdown.
