About

1 copy sold = 1 real tree planted. I will personally be planting the trees on local farms and schools, and looking after them for years to come. If the game is popular I will also be planting wildflowers and creating new flower meadows too! Meaning if you buy Treeplanter you’ll help restore real life nature too!!

Welcome to Treeplanter, an interactive woodland that changes with the seasons. Piece together a small grove of trees. Watch as their roots blossom under the soil.
Features:
A soothing interactive toybox for fans of games like Summerhouse and Tiny Glade!
Piece together woodland with a playful lego-like design!
Procedural creatures turn your grove into a living landscape!
Watch the woodland change throughout the different seasons!
Learn about the natural world above and below!

Based on what you place and build, an ecosystem of animals, plants and birds will move in, turning your creation into their home!



Combining meditation and education, Treeplanter aims to teach players about the interconnected wonders of the natural world, above and below ground.

The Treeplanter prototype was co-created with a small team of rural young people, aged 18-20, they created the majority of the art, visual effects and also did cool things like the fungi and root growing systems! They were paid and mentored thanks to funding from the Eastern Education Group, and were directed by me (Henry). Then we finished Treeplanter off with help from talented friends. Big thanks to everyone, especially Rianna Suen (lead code) and Halime Karaca (lead art).
Please keep in mind that this is a small game with no goals or challenges, created by Henry with help from his friends, as well as students - it's all about creating small but beautiful dioramas, using the tools and items from the game alongside the influences of nature :)

Śliczna gierka, gdzie układamy swój własny mały świat zapomniany przez ludzi, lecz nie przez przyrodę. Za pomocą różnych rodzajów roślin ożywiamy dawne ruiny zapraszając do ich zamieszkania różne typy zwierząt. Same dźwięki lasu, czy padającego deszczu pozwalają się wyciszyć. Warta swojej ceny! A jeszcze, gdy do tego dochodzi fakt, że twórca sadzi drzewo za każdą sprzedaną kopię to już w ogóle.
This is such a pleasant and fantastic idea! Each game purchase plants a tree with communities and schools, I love that so much! In return we get something very beautiful, like a piece of art (and it's affordable too!). It's fantastic! How can anyone dislike this unless they hate trees, but then buying and leaving a bad review means they planted a tree lol. Anyways, keep going strong, I love seeing a project do something that goes beyond itself like that. <3
[h1]Treeplanter: Plant real trees🌲 A Show & Tell as to how to do artistic games. [/h1] With no true goals or achievements (besides helping Henry Driver plant real trees!) Treeplanter is simply a cute virtual diorama builder featuring a gorgeous soundtrack by Lucy Gooch. This elegant game is perfect to wind down to after a long day at work, or as a stocking stuffer for the girlfriend you've been trying to get into videogames. [h3] Pros: [/h3] 🌲Easy to play, even for someone whose never picked up a videogame 🌲Beautiful scenery, calming music, cute animals, this game is impossible to be frustrated at. 🌲Very few restrictions, there is no "wrong" way to place something 🌲 Change nearly anything to your hearts content. Seasons, weather, time of day, even the shade of color are all at your fingertips! 🌲TONS of items to use to create your own unique space [h3] Cons: [/h3] 🌲I can't find a way to delete my old files. Can't get rid of it no matter how hard I look. unless it's not obvious. (Which will lead onto my next point shortly..) This can create some bulky files, especially if you have a child playing and saving 50+ dioramas they'll never look at again. 🌲Some of the advanced controls are not well explained / are not very intuitive. In order to not explain how to play your game, you must rely on using standard keybinds for your players to understand what to do, and that is nearly impossible in a unique game like this. I would suggest to the devs, changing the keybinds away from being mouse-centered, either having a rotation button beside the object, or maybe utilizing the " [ " and " ] " keys. To layer objects manually, you must scroll with your mouse. To change the size your objects, you will have to long left click the object in the area you want to place it, and as you are still holding the LMB, drag it up or down. Voila! Your object looks bigger now. You can turn objects, I still don't really understand how despite managing to accidentally do it once. But I assume it has something to do with the mouse. (will update & make a guide after I figure it out) Either way, It's quite clunky and hard for people with big hands to not miss-click, which is incredibly annoying when you place something that's layered on 10+ objects you REALLY don't want to delete. "Well press the undo button!" ... The undo button that is never explained, and is hidden in the playback toolbar to watch your diorama being built. Once again, not very intuitive. 🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲 Overall, this game is more than worth the $4.00 price tag, and the cons for this one are quite light, especially for the price. Frankly, this game blows me out of the water in terms of art style and music. I am obsessed. With all of that being said, until we can either manually change the keybinds, or the placement tools become decentralized around the mouse, this game will be left for children, or people with small hands such as myself. My rating: 8/10 🌲's
While I've only played through the tutorial, I can confidently recommend Treeplanter. The videos and screenshots do not do the graphics justice. In the game, the lighting looks stunning and the music is incredibly relaxing. There are plenty of options for building your own landscapes that I'm sure many people will find creative uses for. If you're on the fence, consider it worth the price of a real tree being planted.
On ne peut pas faire plus cozy que TreePlanter. Nous ne sommes pas là pour rush ou pour tenter de trouver des succès cachés, non ! Seulement pour se décontracter et souffler avec une musique aussi douce que les arbres et les fleurs que nous pouvons planter. Petit coup de cœur également sur les notifications in game, nous rappelant un peu à chaque fois quelques habitudes à prendre pour l'environnement ou pour nos animaux, ainsi que cette idée de pouvoir inviter ce beau Labrador <3 J'espère de tout cœur qu'autant d'arbres possibles pourront être plantés grâce à ce jeu et que d'autres prendront exemple ! Merci infiniment à toutes les personnes ayant travaillé sur ce jeu et/ou essayant de rendre à nouveau notre planète plus saine.
Gioco con grafica bellissima, merita soprattutto per l'impegno dello sviluppatore di piantare un albero per ogni copia venduta. Felice di aver contribuito! Per quanto sia bello, però, ha parecchi limiti. Senza achievement o missioni da svolgere, è difficile trovare un modo per considerarlo più di un complesso screensaver. Diciamo, meraviglioso, ma poco rigiocabile.
收获一份内心的平静,从种下第一棵树开始 顺着它的姐妹篇过来,虽然互动性不强,但是配乐和色调同样色彩,希望可以一直更新下去
This is a little gem for me. It's a very cosy game with such beautiful music. When you play you get information about plants and animals along the way and when planting/decorate animals come to your wood, it's so cute to see. I love also the fact when it rains and you scroll to the top of your screen the rain is falling slower like the world pauzes a little. The nature sounds are so relaxing. It's in the little details but I love it a lot so far. PS Polly the dog you are such a cutie <3
Often I look out over the forested valleys of my home state and wonder, who were those brave pioneers who tore down all the skyscrapers and shopping malls and apartment complexes in order to plant all of these trees? The developer of this game is one such hero. He intends to use his earnings on this title to sow and maintain a plant army behind enemy lines, at the very heart of the urban overgrowth. For a meager sum you get to design a work of art that focuses on plants and wildlife and their interactions above and below the soil, where the human element takes a backseat to the splendor of the trees. While this is not an ecosystem simulator the way Polypine or Among Ripples in terms of gameplay, this has the zenlike sensation of a living art program. The work you do can trigger the appearance and interactions of other living creatures. Once you've designed a few trees, I guarantee you'll start noticing the things all over the place. Thanks for reading, I recommend you give this a try if you'd like to design yourself a lovely seasonal desktop background, as it pairs beautifully with something like Wallpaper Engine.
Greatly dissapointed. The controls really suck and everything is kinda ugly ngl
