You are a black hole. Everything else is food. Start barely big enough to swallow an asteroid. Drift through space eating debris, astronauts, rockets and fleeing spaceships — and every bite makes you bigger. Grow enough and the planets stop being scenery and start being lunch. Grow enough after that, and you swallow a star. But you are not the only hole out there. Rival black holes hunt the same field, and anything larger than you will eat you without hesitation. FEATURES • 100 handcrafted levels with escalating objectives • Endless mode — unlocked by beating level 50 • 20+ black hole skins, from simple colours to shaped holes, shockwave rings and living flame • Rival AI holes that flee what they fear and chase what they can catch • Boost to run down escaping ships — but boosting burns your own mass • Permanent upgrades: speed, growth, boost, coin gain, head start • One-thumb controls, portrait, playable offline Simple to start. Genuinely hard to finish.
