Donut County is a puzzle video game developed by American designer Ben Esposito and published by Annapurna Interactive in 2018.
[citation needed] Other inspirations for the game included Hopi figurines—a theme Esposito later relinquished—and locations from Bruce Springsteen songs.
BK refuses to acknowledge he did anything wrong, and when he receives his quadcopter, Mira purposely destroys it and then orders a donut to the shop, swallowing it up as well.
The Trash King tempts BK with a lucrative position, while sending a giant quadcopter to fight off Mira.
You play the role of a hole, you must move around an environment making certain elements fall into correct targets at the right time.
[4] Donut County was originally called Kachina,[4] based on the Native American "spirit beings that personify nature".
[5] Donut County also took inspiration from indie game Windosill's art style,[4] Los Angeles's high density of doughnut shops, and locations from Bruce Springsteen songs, such as Asbury Park and the New Jersey Turnpike.
[3] Rock, Paper, Shotgun reported that a presentation of the game at the GDC 2013 Experimental Gameplay Workshop made the audience "cheer and applaud in delight".
[5] Donut County was released on August 28, 2018 for iOS, macOS, PlayStation 4, and Windows platforms,[6] and for Nintendo Switch and Xbox One on December 18, 2018.
In a statement to CBC, Voodoo said that "our developers, whether internal or external... freely interpret existing gameplays as it is the custom throughout the profession where all developers feed off each other's creations... for instance, Donut County and Hole.io are two games with similar gameplay but with different interpretations that each bring a unique game experience".
[57] Kotaku also criticized Voodoo for its surplus of "free mobile game(s) that ape the unique gameplay mechanics of a beloved indie", Hole.io included.
