As it swallows things, the hole grows bigger. Then, you get outside and start moving the hole around.

You start out in the bedroom of a girl named Mira. It also backed Gorogoa, an artistic indie game where you zoom into paintings. Annapurna Interactive is a division of Annapurna Pictures - which is run by Megan Ellison, daughter of Oracle founder Larry Ellison - and made movies such as Her, Zero Dark Thirty, and Detroit. Once Esposito showed what he could do, Annapurna Interactive came in to finance the title and get it onto more platforms. It shows once again that many of the most creative titles in gaming spring from a single mind.

Esposito is also cofounder of Glitch City LA, a collective and community space for indies in Los Angeles. Esposito, a Los Angeles developer who was previously a level designer for The Unfinished Swan and What Remains of Edith Finch, spearheaded this wonderfully creative title. It’s quirky, with a funny story about raccoons who try to take control of a county by monopolizing the trash of all the other animals and swallowing everything in the landscape with a donut hole. I’ve played the PlayStation 4 version, and it took me a couple of hours to get through it.
