Hole Punch: gravity-slingshot spaceship game draws attention
Original: Hole Punch: Sling your spaceship around gravitational fields
A small indie web game called Hole Punch is catching attention online. Players pilot a spaceship by slinging it around gravitational fields, using orbital mechanics rather than direct steering to navigate. Early commenters are drawn to the simple physics-based concept, which echoes classics like Osmos and Gravity Wars, praising the elegant idea of gravity as the main gameplay mechanic.
Why now: A physics-based browser game with a fresh orbital-mechanics mechanic is spreading by word of mouth among tech and gaming communities.
