Name, check.
Art, check.
Music, check.

Totally into whatever is going on here, even if I have no idea what kind of game this is.

Don't want to ruin your day, Patrick. But Donut County is a commentary on gentrification.

Was pretty bummed out when I saw that it was only county and not country.

I think County is better than Country. When's the last time you saw the word County in a game name?

I love donuts and live in a county. This game was made for me, I guess.

If there's one place safe from cops, it's Donut County.

The Mayor (or whatever county's have) had better be named Duncan.

Oh, man. What's rent like in Donut County? How are the voting districts split? I feel like there has to be some catch, here.

I feel like y'all should know that Ben Esposito was involved in Perfect Stride, which I think got a pretty great reception around here, as well as the level designer for The Unfinished Swan (also Room of 1000 Snakes and Bubsy 3D).

He's spectacular.

Actually it's commentary on Siberia, obviously.

I've eaten a lot of donuts in my day, but surprisingly I've never had one with pink frosting. After watching this trailer I have a strong desire to rectify this.

Funny, this just made me think of the pit of despair that follows me wherever I go. Oddly enough, donuts seem to make it go away...
