Banana Signal is free. Releases 2–5 cost 1 star each, 6–10 cost 2 each, and each new group of five adds 1. Skipping locked games multiplies the target’s base price by the number skipped + 1.

The mission

The banana relay has gone quiet. Pilot a tiny salvage ship through the orbital lanes and bring the signal back, one banana at a time.

Collect golden bananas for 25 points. Catch one while boosting—or within a second of letting go—and the payout multiplies by how far that boost dash traveled to reach it. Catch 10 bananas in a row without letting one slip past for a laser drop; keep the streak going for rockets at 20, boost at 30, and a shield at 40. After the shield, the next 10 loops back to lasers and the cycle repeats. A single miss resets the chain. Destroying an asteroid with lasers, rockets, or a shield is worth 10. Hull collisions still cost a life and grant nothing. Every sector—every 15 seconds of survival—the field gets faster and asteroids spawn more often. There is no finish line and no late-game plateau.

You start with 10 seconds of boost and 20 laser shots. Shields and rockets only arrive as salvage. From sector 5, salvage drops once every 30 seconds at the slowest current fall speed. Lightning boosts stack 15 seconds of drift time, spent only while you hold Shift. Shields stack free hits behind a pale ring. Lasers add 20 dual shots; rockets add 10 paired heat-seekers. Same pickups stack.

A little room to improve

Stay near the middle when the field is clear. Watch the top of the screen, plan a path, and remember that a missed banana is better than a damaged ship. Save rockets for crowded sectors. Your best score and the sector reached on that run stay in this browser. Sign in on Cool Monkey Games to keep unlocks and post a qualifying run to the global top 10 under your username. Tied local scores keep the farther sector.
