In Donut County, you control a giant, mobile hole in the ground that gets bigger the more it swallows. In Donut County, the main character is a hole. That's what you play as. A hole that swallows stuff and gets bigger so it can swallow bigger stuff. Donut County is not about the hole.

Have you ever wanted to play as a hole in a video game? No? Well, you're going to get the chance regardless. Indie developer Ben Esposito is releasing his oddball title Donut County August 28th for PS4, iOS and computers (through GOG, the Mac App Store and Steam). The premise remains as absurd as ever: you're playing as raccoons who use holes to take humans' trash, and the holes get larger the more you swallow up. There's a whiff of Katamari Damacy to it, although it's much more puzzle-oriented (you may need to grab a smaller object to manipulate a larger one, for instance).
