The game uses this simplistic framework to excel at character, both in the world and its inhabitants. This story, as well as the game’s short and simplistic nature, leaves it feeling like a pure expression of love for making games – one of the keys to a successful indie game. The game’s initial premise is rather unique, as the idea originated from a public game jam where a parody Twitter account won and thus their game concept was made into Donut County. More content is not always ideal for certain games, as Donut County developed by Ben Esposito proves aptly. Sometimes a shorter, but still enjoyable, gaming experience is worth a player’s time.
