Retro Circles is a level by Nacho21, because mixes Retro and [[Nine Circles]] style. To create this level, he used the huge amount of 60979 objects, but the level can be played without many problems also from a mobile phone. In fact this level has no low detail mode. This level is generally overlooked by "easiest Nine Circles levels rankings", but is still considered an easy demon.

== Gameplay ==
==Description==
The level starts with a simple cube, but in slow speed, then you must be careful to syncronize the timing to avoid the spikes. Then the speed becomes single and the player goes in a ship mode, that can be cleared without many effort because of the absence of gravity portals. Then appears a still simple ball but you must hit the rings with a correct timing to not hurt a spike. Then ball is follwed by a cube that resembles [[Nine Circles]] and [[Silhouette]], but is auto. Then the music drops and the wave is introduced. Seemingly, the wave is easy due to large spaces and not gravity portals. The level is made much harder by an huge amount of speed and size portals, creating a gameplay similar to [[Nostalgia]]. The player must be careful to memorise the correct timing to not crash. The easiest part of the level is the mini dual wave, a classic of [[Nine Circles Levels]]. The level ends with a cube that is similar to the first one, but is slightly harder because of double spikes and clusters of orbs. After Nacho21 thanks some players ([[ToshDeluxe]], [[Rulas]], Synder YT, and others) , the level ends.
*'''0-13%:''' Retro Circles begins with a simple half-speed cube sequence, where the player must be careful to synchronize their timing to avoid the spikes.
*'''13-26%:''' Next, the player enters a normal-speed ship sequence that can be easily cleared without much effort because of the wide spaces between structures.
*'''26-47%:''' Then, the player enters a simple ball sequence, requiring the player to time the orbs correctly to avoid hitting any spikes. After that comes an auto cube sequence that closely resembles Nine Circles.
*'''47-88%:''' The music drops, and the player enters a triple-speed wave sequence. It seems easy at first because of the large spaces and lack of gravity portals. However, it becomes much harder because of the abundant speed and size portals. The player must memorize the correct timings to avoid crashing. The easiest part of the level is perhaps the dual-mini-wave segment, a classic 'ingredient' of [[Nine Circles Levels|Nine Circles levels]].
*'''88-100%:''' Afterwards, the player enters one final cube sequence similar to the first one, but it is slightly harder because of numerous double-spikes and clusters of orbs. The level ends with text from Nacho21 thanking some players ([[ToshDeluxe]], Rulas, Synder YT, and others).


== Trivia ==
==User coins==
* The language of the level is Spanish.
Retro Circles contains three user coins.
* In the last cube Nacho21 signed a double spike when [[GuitarHeroStyles]] and Alvarofuen crashed at it.
*The first coin is located in the ball sequence at 29%, requiring the player to skip a pink pad to travel down to a platform with the coin to collect. They must use the X-marked blue orb to return to the normal path.
* CrisPy Dash, the creator of [[Fear Me]], was inspired by this level and created an other NC Retro, Screamroom Circles, but he deleted it after a little time because he had still created Fear Me and if [[Sonic Wave]] was l1.
*The second coin is located in the wave sequence at 49%, requiring the player to take the tight lower path to collect it.
* This level continued the 2.0 trend to using [[Nine Circles]] [[Xtrullor]] remix.
*The third and final coin is free to obtain at the last jump of the level.
