Press release:
The Warsaw-based (Poland) indie games publisher Crunching Koalas and Berlin-based (Germany) indie games developer Dexai Arts, today announced with great joy and thrill that their filled narrative RPG “Techno Banter“, is now available for PC (vis Steam and GOG) and consoles (PS5, Xbox Series X, and the Nintendo Switch) via digital stores.

In Techno Banter, players step into the shoes of Nil, a would-be superstar who now works as a selective bouncer in one of the most popular rave spots in Rainbow Drive – the un-legendary Green Door.
Every party brings a never-ending queue of eccentrics, tricksters, trendsetters, and techno enthusiasts – speaking briefly, potential guests of your club. Nil’s mission? Make sure the party keeps rocking (or raving). And for that, a strict door policy is essential. Sloppy outfit? Obvious traces of last night’s escapades? Or maybe the vibe is ‘just not right’? Every visitor has their own story that might disqualify them from entry, but sometimes a simple “NO” may not be enough.

Divide and rule – figure out who you’re dealing with and better handle uninvited guests with a clever retort or a sharp joke. After all, words can hit harder than any beefed-up bouncer’s fist.

Ready for the party? Here’s what else is on the setlist:
🌆 A city that glows – your duties as a bouncer are just the beginning! Explore the neon-filled streets of Rainbow Drive, a city that never seems to sleep. Discover hidden dance floors and get some inspiration to upgrade your own club.
🎶 Pure rave energy – Nil’s adventures are accompanied by an absolutely fire soundtrack created in collaboration with Berlin-based DJs, capturing the essence of Europe’s techno capital. Just don’t lose yourself on the dance floor – that line outside isn’t going to move itself!
✨ Make it the next Berghain – strict selection and cutting-edge music are key to turn Green Door into the hottest spot in the city. Get your experience, grow the club, and create a true paradise for techno freaks.

Techno Banter launches today:

On PlayStation 5 and PC (via GOG) at 6:00 PM CET.
On Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch, and PC (via Steam) at 8:00 PM CET.

The game will launch at a standard price of $17.99, with special launch discounts:

-20% off on Steam and GOG.
-10% off on Nintendo Switch.
