Hole Is Mine Hits 20,000 Copies in Three Days, Drops First Patch
Three days after launch, incremental game Hole Is Mine has crossed 20,000 copies sold. Developer delunadogames marked the milestone with a community post and, on the same day, shipped a patch alongside a new Supporter Pack.
What changed
The update — internally dubbed "Hole Patch #1" — addresses clarity and feedback issues surfaced since release:
- Tentacle upgrades gated properly: High-cost Tentacle upgrades are now blocked until the Tentacle Totem generator is unlocked, reducing confusion about resource farming across earlier Caves.
- Final Boss indicators: New visual cues clarify what players should do when the Boss enters its protection phase.
- Costume and equipment tracking: The UI now displays how many Costumes and Equipment Combos of each type are currently equipped.
- Visual effects added: New VFX appear when using a Druid Potion and in several other minor locations.
- Astro Prospector acknowledgment: Players who have Astro Prospector in their library receive a thank-you message.
Separately, the Supporter Pack is now available for purchase. It adds a statue to the in-game Village bearing the buyer's Steam name — described by the developer as "a funny detail" rather than a gameplay advantage.
For players navigating the mid-game, the Tentacle upgrade gate in particular should smooth a progression pain point that the studio says generated notable feedback in its first days of release.
