Bunches For Bart!

Hike your way up an expansive African mountain, one grab at a time, in this gamepad controlled 'Foddian' platformer -- where any one bad fall could send you tumbling back down to the bottom.

About the Game

Carry Bart, an ex-gambler and professional monkey, towards his new fortune; the mythical "Banana Springs," which is said to overflow with beautifully ripe banana bunches. Using both his hands and a considerable dose of patience, your task is to overcome the distance between Bart and the mountain's peak -- where Banana Springs lies.

Key features:

  • A fully illustrated, 500ft tall mountain, with 15 distinct platforming sections.

  • A complicated, dual joystick control scheme, that can be continually mastered over several playthroughs.

  • A built in cooperative mode, for those who want to summit as a pair.

  • Area specific gimmicks and music, that keep each new section unique.

  • A dedicated cry button, for when you feel like sobbing your eyes out.

  • Many, many opportunities to fall back down to a previous section, with only one way back up...

(Inspired by "Getting Over It with Bennett Foddy," and other games like it!)
