A game where you endlessly click a banana has become a hit on Steam, but the history behind one of the developers has raised some alarm bells.
People, and bots, are going bananas over Banana Certain parties like to argue video games are a waste of time, and shouldn’t be considered art, and sometimes it’s hard to argue against that when thousands of people are doing nothing but clicking a picture of a banana for entertainment. Earlier this month, a game called Banana shot up the charts on Steam. A few weeks later and it’s still riding high in terms of player numbers.
’ The developer later claimed there is ‘no scamming/scam’ involved in Banana, with the team planning to expand the title beyond its current state. ‘We cannot wait to turn this game into something bigger and better than just a clicker game,’ the team added. ‘Please stay on the lookout as we have been and still are working on a large amount of updates to improve the game and let you all do much more with your bananas.’ Banana’s soaring player count might not be what it seems.
