What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Banana Drama is in development for about one and a half years now by only three independent creators! We know that there is still room for improvement. Early Access offers us the opportunity to show Banana Drama to an online community as soon as possible and to get feedback during the ongoing development phase. Please consider being part of the feedback banana crew on Discord, too!”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We plan to stay in Early Access for about one year. We have a list of features that we would like to include for the final release. Depending on the feedback we receive, this list and thus the development time might change.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“The final version will offer the following features:

- New objects and resources
- Some more upgrades
- Different types of units
- Public lobbies
- More levels
- More units
- More players per lobby

Depending on the wishes of the community, we are of course open to changes or extensions of the list! We are waiting for your feedback!”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“So far, the game includes:

- Single-player mode with two different game modes
- Multiplayer mode with up to four players
- Optional activation of an AI
- Building objects such as trees, fences, catapults, etc.
- Marketplace for exchanging resources
- Upgrades for buildings and units
- Three different levels
- and so much more ...

Try it out! It's free!”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“We want Banana Drama to remain free forever. In the future we would like to generate our income through DLCs & sponsors to offset our costs that we will have in developing and deploying the game.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“We maintain a Discord server to communicate with the community. We are always grateful for suggestions that we can include in our development process. Be a part of that! We also inform about updates, features and progress on Steam. Also consider subscribing to our YouTube channel where we post additional game footage etc.”

About This Game

OH NO! A bunch of dinosaurs are doing mischief on the island and are holding the monkey king captive. Free the king, be the king! Build your monkey village and collect resources to prepare for the ultimate island fight. But be aware - there might be other monkey armies, too. Invite your friends to an awesome online session or enhance your banana drama skills in singleplayer mode. The island is waiting for you!

Singleplayer & Multiplayer

You like to play solo? If you manage to free the king, you win. If all your monkeys are defeated, victory goes to the dinosaurs. In this mode you have no time pressure and therefore it can be used as a great training mode for a turbulent multiplayer game. Turn on some bots for the ultimate island fight. Fight your (real) opponents and be the last survivor. The last one standing wins! The monkey king plays a central role. If you free him, he will join your army.


Features

  • Singleplayer
  • Online multiplayer
  • Tricky bots
  • Lovely graphics
  • Multiple play modes
  • Independent developers
  • Free!

Overview

Collect resources, build your village and free your monkey king. Find the perfect strategy to prepare your monkey army. But do not wait too long, your opponents aren't sleeping! :o

Monkey King

The king has decisive advantages: he collects resources way faster than normal monkeys and has so much more health points. It might be advantageous to free him fast! But oh no - be aware! The dinos have other plans :/

Monkeys

Hugo, Bernadette, Alfred, Herbert and so many more! Your loyal monkeys are waiting for you! What are you waiting for?
