A banana-loving fun time. Kinda.

Join Jim-Bob Jabbawock, a cute lil' monkey who's looking forward to a bright future, and his friends for a memorable romp! We've got the philosophical and introverted Soft Stevie, the outspoken and mischievous Banana Yoergen, and who can forget THE GRUNGE, the resident music-loving bestie who's always there for his friends in their time of need! 

So if you're looking for a short game (20-30 minutes of playtime) full of lovable characters, you've found it! So why not boot it up right away?

...But maybe read the FAQ below first. Or you know, don't? That's on you, though.

FAQ

Q: Tymedust, have you gone insane?

A: I understand why you'd ask that, but no... I'm just indulging the more unhinged parts of my mind for a bit. :)

Q: Is this related to The Purgatoryverse in any way?

A: No. This is a very short, stand-alone game (made in just two days with free assets) based on a sudden idea I had, and I felt like I couldn't explore it properly within the context of a Purgatoryverse game for a multitude of reasons. It's a gritty arthouse project, with everything that entails. Don't expect the usual high production values here.

Q: I like The Purgatoryverse, will I like this?

A: Not necessarily. I'm the writer, obviously, but it's very different in tone from my other games, and none of my usual collaborators are a part of this project.

Q: How about trigger warnings?

A: This game is intended for a mature audience. It may upset you, and contains scenes of cruelty, violence and horror.

Q: Can you be more specific?

A: Yes, but be aware that looking at specific trigger warnings may spoil parts of the game, and unless you're very averse to some types of content, I strongly recommend not looking at this. But here you go:

List of Trigger Warnings - Death/Murder
- Abortion
- Violence
- Dissociation
- Profanity
- Claustrophobia

Q: Alright, I looked at the warnings and I'm out. Is there any risk at all that I will miss out on anything related to The Purgatoryverse if I choose to not play this?

A: You're totally fine, and I respect that decision. Monkey time isn't for everyone, and that's okay.

Out of pure instinct, I declare this a silly horror game, and a good horror game/novel

Ohhh I'm liking that instinct of yours! :D Much appreciated <3
