Reporting from 1 source: Game Spark.
TARK announced that Lefto Studio's cooperative bomb defusal game BOMBANANA! has sold over 500,000 copies, less than a week after its September 2 launch on Steam. The three-player title drew 6 million demo players before release. Steam reviews sit at 97% positive across 1,388 reviews, rated Overwhelmingly Positive.
Lefto Studio said it is truly surprised at how fast the community has grown since release and thanked players in the September 7 announcement. SteamDB showed concurrent players passing 20,000 at the time of writing.
The three-player setup is built on asymmetric restrictions. The See No Evil monkey cannot see the bomb but can touch it, the Speak No Evil monkey can read the defusal manual but cannot talk, and the Hear No Evil monkey can watch the others' gestures but hears nothing.
BOMBANANA! is on sale for Windows and Mac via Steam.
