Better Edition Now Only $1 – And Is An Unforgettable Steam Gift Too!



As You Are Not A Banana was my debut game and it has been on Steam for over 2 yrs now it's about time I lowered the price. The Better Edition was designed from the ground up and contains lots of new features and content, including Trading Cards and 25 Steam Achievements.

This unique game is a pretty memorable Steam Gift too.

You Are Not A Banana: Better Edition!

Working on You Are Not A Banana: Better Edition in my spare time (whilst trying to get Mayhem In Single Valley to full production) - new lighting system, save option, dialogue system, improved mini-games, jokes, etc. All improvements are based on the feedback I've received to date. Hope to add achievements and some kind of speed run timer too. Revisiting old code and graphics with new skills is strangely satisfying. It will be available as a major update - so obviously no extra purchase required. May take a few months yet as I am still working alone on all this. ːsteamhappyː
Happy gaming - Brian

Mayhem In Single Valley (5:36 mins)

Quick update on my new game Mayhem In Single Valley

I've been very busy developing my new game Mayhem In Single Valley . I can confirm the game has player stats, basic crafting, a quest manager, a proper save option, plus some J.J. Abrams-esque secret stuff I can't speak about right now : )

If you haven't seen the official homepage yet, why not check it out? You'll discover screenshots, animation previews, teaser posters, a dev blog, and more. The game is turning out to me a mix between Undertale and The Last Of Us - seriously!

Enjoy - Brian

Ps New music and a early video demo coming soon!

Glitch art trading cards now available!

I have designed a unique set of glitch art trading cards based on scenes and assets from the game. I have also created a humorous set of emoticons, backgrounds, and badges.

Due to the new refund system card drops won't happen until you've acquired over 2hrs playtime but you can leave the game in idle (maybe visit an art museum or a graveyard) if you have already completed it : )

Happy hunting - b

A small update

Version 1.0.7
Fixed an audio glitch where the player could sometimes be heard walking after being teleported.
Fixed an intermittent glitch where the secret door remained invisible after opening.
Cleaned up some random pixel issues in the infinite graveyard (virtual groundskeeping).

Thanks for the feedback so far!

I have read all the reviews (positive and negative - ouch!) so far. I thought I would share a list of improvements that I will be adding to the spiritual successor I am developing called Mayhem In Single Valley. First off, everything in the You Are Not A Banana was made by one person (me) and there were many limitations in terms of time, resources, and know-how, when making my first game. However, for Mayhem In Single Valley I am working with a small team. We have decided to build the new game from the ground up so we can incorporate the following improvements based on your comments regarding YNB.


  • A save option – as the game will be a lot longer and there will be lots more areas to explore/discover.
  • An inventory system (and hopefully some basic crafting).
  • Enemies and boss battles to keep you on your toes.
  • A faster pace with more moves and environmental interactions.
  • An in-depth story with a variety of weird and wonderful fleshed out characters.
  • Stats based combat and character progression.
  • A hint system for those trickier puzzles.
  • Lots of special level-up items, modes of transport, and mini games.

Thank you for your support so far. More news and previews coming soon.
Happy gaming - Brian

You Are Not A Banana has made it to Steam!

It's been quite the journey. Thanks to everyone who gave my game their vote on Greenlight. More than appreciated : )

By picking up a copy you are supporting the development of 'Mayhem In Single Valley' – a spiritual successor to You Are Not A Banana that contains many new features and improvements. More news and previews coming soon.

Don't forget to send me your thoughts on how you'd like to see the game evolve and I'll do my best to make it happen.
