About

Holeling

Features
Read full description

Holeling is a casual puzzle game that combines trail drawing, physics, and target collecting. Drag your character across the ground to leave a trail. Close the loop to create a hole, then reconnect from its edge to expand or merge it. Push fruit, desserts, and everyday objects, using gravity, collisions, suction, and chain-reaction collapse to make each target fall all the way in. Every collected object helps you grow. Extend your maximum trail length and increase your pushing power, clear smaller objects first, then take on larger targets. Read the structure of each pile, plan your route and collection order, and complete the order before time runs out. Features: • Draw closed loops to reshape the playfield and open holes • Physics-based rolling, collisions, stacking, and collapses • Grow your trail length and pushing power as you collect • Varied targets and layouts that reward smart routes and sequencing • Helpful power-ups, including Magnet, Compass, and Time Freeze • Simple drag controls with clear, satisfying feedback Draw the route, expand the hole, and collect every target!
