## What is this Game about?

Holesome is about holes! But not the kind you have seen before ...

Gameplay:
- Navigate the environment as a hole
- Eat the things that fall into you
- Grow bigger to eat more things
- Hide from enemies by closing
- Damage your enemies by setting up traps
- Eat your enemies and be the only one remaining

Style:
- Isometric
- Cute, but dangerous
- Intuitive color coding

## What is the goal?

The player controls a hole and has to consume as many objects as possible to grow. There are a variaty of Game modes that could be fun:

- Eat as many objects as possible in a given time
- Eat as many objects as possible, as well as all of your enemies and be the only one left
- Eat as many objects as possible, but don't eat the bombs/etc., they will make you smaller again

## Which components are included?

- **Physics**: Core gameplay element to make the objects fall into the holes in a fun way
