About Forest Doesn’t Care

Forest Doesn’t Care — you are alone in a real wild forest: with no hints, no GPS, and no goal except the one you choose yourself.

There is only you, the raw wilderness — and whatever happens to you.
Once, this was a calm game about walking and picking mushrooms.
Now it’s a living system, where weather, sound, animals, and random events can change everything.The game was made by just two people.
Brought to life — by thousands.
The forest doesn’t care. But you shouldn’t be indifferent.

🌲 A forest that feels real

No artificial paths, no "game zones".
Only real terrain, dense thickets, swamps, stumps, and natural routes shaped by nature itself.

🌦 Weather that won’t spare you

Piercing fog, cold rain, and nights where you hear more than just the wind.

🦌 Survival without compromises

Camping, hunting, fishing, gathering resources, inventory, cold, hunger, exhaustion — and moments of absolute peace.

🫥 Strange discoveries

This isn’t a horror game, but sometimes the forest behaves as if it has a will of its own.

🤝 Multiplayer

Walk together, survive together, argue by the campfire, hide from the rain, laugh when someone slips into the river.
The forest doesn’t care.

🎧 Sound that creates atmosphere better than words

Birds, crunching branches, wind… and that distant “something” that makes you want to turn around.

Forest Doesn’t Care doesn’t hold your hand.

It simply throws you into the wild — and watches what you’ll do.If you want to explore, survive, get lost, find something unexplainable, or just sit on a stump and watch the fog — this game is for you.

## Developer’s Note

This game is not just an atmospheric walk through the forest and mushroom collecting—it is also an experiment with the modern capabilities of Unreal Engine 5. I used procedural generation, Nanite, Lumen, textures up to 8–16 K, and a vast amount of geometry to recreate the most alive and detailed nature.This is a fully solo project made from scratch. For me, this game is proof that even one person can realize a dream using modern tools. If you’ve ever dreamed of making games too—don’t be afraid, start making them!

It seems like it would be good if it would run. its too unstable to play. Id wait till they fix it or see if it gets abandoned like most stuff nowadays.

Game has serious issues started it up created my character did the settings start a game everything was fine....quite game to desktop and it wouldnt start again tried numerous times the screen res would go wonky okay look in app data folder for game and it wasnt saving a settings config???? ....tried 10 more times to get game to launch eventually it did after deleting the entire app data folder and know allows me to play... The AI is crap in this youl be wondering next thing you know hyper angry guys who move all over the place erratically start shooting at you no way of defending yourself except die and restart again...dev needs to give people a starting pistol something fire arm based so you can deal with the stupid bad guys that youl come across and work on thee AI itself....there like juiced up robots with super aiming abilities no map no tutorial just drop ya in game figure crap out isnt really fun...you dont even get a compass so no idea what direction your going in just wonder around aimlessly Had issue with xbox 1 controller too go to move view around or walk and my guy kept moving and turning his head isnt a dead zone issue as i tested that through the steam controll…

Edit: no updates or even communication in half a year. The thumbs up here is mainly because of the price, performance and hope for what it can become. Aside from Nightingale, this is easily the best looking UE5 game I've played and it runs nicely at 4k/120 on a 5090 with everything maxed out except lighting or shadows which I set one notch below Cinematic. I'm really, REALLY impressed with how everything looks. I'll check back in a few months so see how it's going. Right now it's about what I wanted it to be, basically just wanted something that looked amazing on my 77in OLED and this fit the bill. Hopefully they add an update where you can drink tons of gasoline. Edit: Oh, and the ability to rebind keys. That's kind of a dealbreaker for me in terms of sticking with it for a while.

Rubbish game. fatal error after fatal error... managed to create a character... then that was as far as i could get. Just the character creation part was very limited. game should be free

looks really good but with no deadzone adjustments for controller i find it hard to get into because im constantly drifting all over the place. looking forward to that. No hate on the game tho, keyboard players will love it

Explore explore explore and ye shall find. I thought it was going to be a tedious walk about and get lost in the woods scenario. But hey, set your compass and go. Lots to do and you will bump into some strange goings on. People who live in the woods will protect what they have achieved and you are the enemy. Such as I found out. Biggest tip I have is, find the shotgun and bigger backpack. It will help you out, a lot.
