With the development of technology, video games are becoming increasingly beautiful and high-quality, but the time spent on development also tends to increase significantly.
According to statistics, the average development time for a large-budget game often falls around four years. For blockbuster titles, this duration can be even longer. Even for independent projects, the minimum development time is usually significant. Recently, it’s not uncommon for a game to be created in just two weeks, yet it’s already “breaking records” on Steam.
The game is titled A Game About Digging a Hole – a title that has received quite a “neutral” rating on Steam at the moment.
True to its name, A Game About Digging a Hole allows players to dig a large hole in the backyard. Starting from a small hole, players will dig down into the ground, collecting resources and other items to sell in order to purchase advanced drilling equipment, such as handheld drills or explosives.
In terms of gameplay, this adventure of resource gathering is indeed similar to many other games available on Steam. With over 3,000 positive reviews, A Game About Digging a Hole even managed to climb into the rankings of the best-selling games at the moment, surpassing the blockbuster title Dynasty Warriors: Origins. Notably, the development team dedicated 14 days during their vacation to create it.
A Game About Digging a Hole was officially launched in December last year and quickly garnered over 100,000 wishlists. The price of this game is also quite reasonable, at just over 70,000 VND, making it accessible for many gamers.
