LEGO® Circus was a smart toy designed to use LEGO® Kidpad technology developed by Mudpuppy Studios. It would have allowed the player to play various activities, such as Magic Transformation, Matching, and Washing, with physical Duplo figures during modes such as Showtime and Backyard. The game was ultimately canceled in an alpha state when the LEGO® Lab closed.
Yeah, so Kidpad was also the title that I was working on. And we had three, basically three projects that we wanted to do with LEGO. And one of them was lower end age groups like Duplo based. I think they had the idea of doing a Circus theme playset because the Duplo Circus is a very famous playset and they wanted to relaunch it, but they wanted to update it with the technology.
So I got paired with some guys from Denmark, who were like program leads for it there, and who were working mostly on the hard toy parts. And we started to develop the gameplay.
