Steer a black hole, devour colorful cubes, and grow in this satisfying, bite-sized incremental game about causing chaotic, colorful

If you have ever wanted to just clear the screen of clutter, Everybody Loves a Good Hole offers a satisfying way to do exactly that. You take control of a black hole, steering it through a bright and chaotic world with the singular goal of swallowing everything in sight. It is a straightforward, bite-sized incremental experience that focuses on the simple pleasure of watching things vanish into your gravitational pull.

Gameplay

The core loop is simple: you use your mouse to steer your black hole across the screen, pulling in hundreds of colorful cubes. While smaller cubes vanish instantly, larger ones require more patience or specific upgrades to consume. As you devour these objects, you earn both XP to grow your hole during the run and coins to spend on permanent upgrades afterward.

Between your timed runs, you will dive into a deep upgrade tree to boost your performance. You can spend your hard-earned coins to increase your pull radius, extend your run time, or start at a larger size. You will also unlock entirely new types of cubes that offer significantly higher rewards, keeping the progression feeling fresh as you grow bigger with every attempt.

To really ramp up the chaos, you can hunt for magic books during your runs. These trigger temporary, stackable skills like Magnet, Duplicate, or Rain Mode. By leveling these powers up in the upgrade tree and chaining them together, you can turn the screen into a flurry of activity, making it easier to swallow even the most stubborn cubes.

What stands out

What makes the experience stand out is the sheer visual feedback of the chaos. The world is vibrant and packed with hundreds of cubes that react to your presence. Whether you are watching small cubes disappear instantly or struggling to pull in larger ones, the game emphasizes a sense of scale that changes as you grow.

The design philosophy centers on the 'just one more run' feeling. Because the runs are timed, every second is a race to maximize your haul. This creates a tight, rewarding loop where you are constantly iterating on your strategy to ensure that each time you return to the screen, your black hole is bigger and more capable than before.

Who might enjoy it

This is a great pick if you enjoy games that respect your time with short, snappy sessions. If you find the loop of gathering resources to fuel permanent upgrades rewarding, or if you just want a colorful, physics-based distraction that lets you chase milestones and beat your previous high scores, you will likely find a lot to like here.
