RealNetworks thinks December is the perfect time for a tiki-themed game

Sort of like a tropical World of Goo, Towers charges players with defeating the tribes antagonizing your island. You fight, obviously, by directing monkeys to build towers out of bamboo and other tropical-style materials. Your monkeys can counter evil spells with their own spells, which require BananaMana generated from monkey chants.
Tiki Towers is scheduled for a December 8 release. In a bold move, RealNetworks has planned a simultaneous release on WiiWare, iPhone, and other mobile platforms. Which means that it would really sting if Nintendo randomly changed the release date.

This will probably end up being terrible, but they had me at monkeys.

BananaMana? How long do you think some guy has been sitting on that one? He had to be searching for some title on to which he could tack on monkeys just to use BananaMana. Well, here you go guy; it's your day to shine.
