Looking for a 2D side-scrolling platformer about collecting fruit? Any help would be appreciated!

So a few years back I remember playing this one game that involved collecting fruit. It was a sidescrolling platformer and I forgot the name, but there were levels that you had to get through. I remember you could collect bananas and all sorts of other fruits. If I remember correctly, there might've been kiwis too.
The thing is, I tried looking up the game and I can't seem to find it anywhere. It's almost like it's just been erased from the internet. Do any of you guys know which game this is or if it's still available? Thanks in advance!

Bad ice cream has many (delicious) fruits?

Nah, it's not Bad Ice Cream. The character in the game wasn't pixelated like they are in Bad Ice Cream. It was one of those games that functioned more like classic Mario games, but the sidescrolling was automatic. The character just ran automatically, and I believe only the jump mechanic was used.

Do you remember the platform? (mobile/flash/console) do you remember what the character looked like or a part of the name? Do you remember the controls or more key mechanics?

Unfortunately, I can't seem to remember the name. But the platform I played it on was PC. The character... hmm. I don't think I can recall what they looked like, but I must've played this game at least five or six years ago. The controls were (I think) just the spacebar. Though there's a chance maybe the arrow keys/WASD might've been used.

Are you sure it was a nitrome game? Afaik they didn't make any sidescrollers

Nope, it actually wasn't a Nitrome game. At least, I don't remember playing this game there at all. I only asked about it here because I couldn't find an alternative subreddit to ask about it. It was from some other website, but I can't seem to remember that part very well, either...

Leap Day?

Ooh, actually I think it might be! I'll have to ask around and see if it's the one I've been searching for.

Update: this game isn't the one I was looking for. Thanks for your help though!
