Evaluation

Bananner Nababber launched on August 13, 2022 as a free-to-play boss rush platformer. The developer shipped at least one notable content update during its lifetime — a new boss (Chip Potato) along with fixes and new features in May 2023. On February 25, 2025, the developer published a post explicitly titled "The Final Content Update," which added 3 new bosses, a new secret ending, achievements, a tutorial, and various improvements. The title of that post is a clear and direct statement that no further content is planned. The game is considered complete as of February 25, 2025.

About this game

It's a nice sunny day in Neo-Tartaria and ruthless killer Harry Pippels and his pretend friend Humpty-Ho are guzzling down some sprutzels and racking up a debt at the bar. Their life of luxury is soon interrupted however when news about the Elder Demon's crypto schemes becomes public knowledge. Energy generation is diverted from the population into crypto mining, and if no one intervenes then the precious lives of all Neo-Tartarians are upended as the chilling Neo-Tartarian winter draws near. Only one question remains...
