Rescue The HOLES is an indie escape puzzle game where you have to help rescue and navigate cute ring-like characters, known as "HOLES", through a series of pipes, traps and other dangers! With our new level maker in v3.0, you can now design your own levels with your creativity!

There are various difficulty modes which you can select:

Easy - Each HOLE recovers its HP, after taking damage.
Normal - HOLES do not recover, with a finite HP.
Hard - HOLES only take 1 hit.

There are currently 50+ levels of various skill levels, with more to come in the future!

1) Beginner (Green)
2) Intermediate (Yellow)
3) Hard (Red)
4) Insane (Purple)
5) Evil (Black)

Current Features:

1) Pipes - Avoid coming into contact with the pipes, these deal frictional damage to the HOLES.
2) Traps - Avoid the traps that deal maximum damage!
3) Junction switches - Find and activate the switches to cross-junctions and obstacles to reach the final destination.
4) Fattening cheese - Grow bigger to overcome bigger pipes
5) Chains - Navigate 2 holes that are chained together
6) Ghost pipes - Holes can touch and navigate freely
7) Pimple - Show where the holes last contacted with pipes before perishing
8) Passthrough - Toggle between Mixed Reality and VR mode

Simple idea but really good game!

This game is really fun and has exceeded my expectations! I bought it half expecting that I'd be asking for a refund (maybe because it's so cheap I expected it to be low quality) but actually it's an excellent game that I'll be keeping and playing lots more. It's such a simple concept, guide the hoop along a tube and past obstacles - but there's plenty of creativity so that it stays fun to play and gets increasingly challenging. This sort of game works so well in mixed reality, I'm impressed and happy with it!

Tip - on my Quest 3 I've found using the trigger button to hold the ring works better than the grip button. The grip button sometimes lets go for some reason.
Suggestions - let players see their high score (and best time) for each individual level, rather than just seeing a running overall total. This way there's more incentive to replay levels. There could also be a scoreboard to see other players best scores/times.

EDIT - Now the grip button has been fixed and there are leader boards!

Excellent arcade nostalgia

This game is a great VR throwback to that arcade maze where you have to guide that metal rod from one end to the other, without touching the path.

Only a a few hard levels in, but it's definitely entertaining and worth the price.

I haven't looked around the menu much, but if it's not there, this would be a great game where building your own levels would fit well. Also, being able to share and download puzzles created by others.

With all the stars we can earn, I think a "store" to spend them would also be a good idea. We could unlock things to customize our characters - and if the create our own levels becomes reality - quirky and interesting obstacles for our courses could also be unlocked.

I look forward to what comes next.

It feels like Super Mario!

This game is really freaking cool! At first you would think it might not be because its so simple looking but trust me this is a hidden gem. You have to move a ring around multiple pipes and obstacles as you try to hit the sides of anything or you will loose health. I didnt realize it at first but the more i played it the more i realized its kinda like super mario! There are a ton of levels to get through with several different difficulties that make the game a real challenge. There is even a world leaderboard to try and beat your friends scores which makes it that much more fun and adds replay value to the game. 100% worth downloading and checking out. I love the nice calming music as you make your way through the puzzles. The game truly wants you to get better and better and faster and faster. Love it and its a great use of mixed reality!
