Not bad. I like you portals idea a lot, and your drawn graphics. I do think everything is a little too touchy, with the shovel sometimes spawning into a wall.

I feel like the gameplay is a bit broken... Also the music was really irritating I have to say, so thanks for the mute button lol. With some more content and a good amount of polish this could become something really fun to play. Please give my game a try too :)

Antithesis VergeThanks for the music mute button ;-). Nice little game, a bit hard to know where you could place the holes, sometimes they did not appear and I kept on smashing the mouse buttons, but had fun playing it. Please rate mine too.

curseD DemonsUnfortunately I'm having some trouble getting the game to respond to clicking and placing the portholes.

Pothole RunnerNice drawn artwork. The music is a little annoying. The mute button is required. Good job!

Hole MonstersI thought this was a lot of fun, you have some really clever design around the portals and this could easily be built out to become a longer puzzle game. You also nailed the theme, great job!
Thanks for including the mute button ;)

POTHOLES!@#$%Good idea but the shovel is a bit glitchy and the music could be better. levels 3 and 4 are impossible due to clipping

Protect The Burrowthe idea is cool , it needs a little polishing , but overall good work and good luck in your future games

Whack a Hole To Whack a MoleGood job for completing your first game jam! It was a good attempt! The game itself could use some improvements in movement through portals.

Realm of HolesNice idea - I think it fits the game jam theme really well :)
It would be great if there was some kind of feedback (e.g., a different mouse cursor), whether it is possible to place a portal at the current position. I just kept clicking, until a spot worked, and a portal appeared.

Holes at the MuseumUnfortunately I don't know what to do in the game :(
I am stucked at first level!

KILL THEM ALLI put all the rules in the description of the game. The goal of the game is to get to the portal with swirly lines on it and press space to beat the level. To place the first portal, click left mouse button or Q. To place the second portal, click right mouse button or E. I hope this helps! Sorry for not clear instructions! (:
