About Treeplanter: Plant real trees🌲
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.
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 :)
What Steam players say
Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
[h3]It feels more like a project than a game, and honestly, that's exactly what it is.[/h3] The developer says they plant one real tree for every copy sold, and that's the main reason I bought it. I really like the idea that you can have a small positive impact on the real world just by buying and playing a game on Steam. [h3]The "Game"[/h3] There isn't really a goal or traditional gameplay here. It's more of a sandbox where you create your own experience. The best use I found was building beautiful little scenes with different trees, lighting, and colors, then taking screenshots to use as wallpapers. Visually, it's genuinely impressive. The lighting is excellent, the environments are colorful and relaxing, and the overall art style feels unique. There are plenty of tools that let you create your own scenes, and that's clearly where most of the effort went. [h3]What I'd Like to See[/h3] I'd love to see the developer add at least some Steam achievements. Trading cards, badges, or even profile items would also be a great fit. Considering the game's unique visual style, I think they could look really good.4 found this helpful
just got it for the tree planting. but game is decent and chill3 found this helpful
Unfortunately I couldn't get it going. I'm on Linux Mint, but the two different Proton Compatibility Layers I tried didn't work (this is unusual), and neither did running it in a Windows sandbox (which really SHOULD have worked; that was the desperation move!). This is the first Windows Steam game I've tried that NO workaround works for, and for which I have to do a hard reset to get it off the black screen that appears whenever I try to play it. It might be a good game but I'm not in a position to say. I returned it for a refund after I ran out of "Play Already You Dratted Thing!" options. So... if you use Linux, DO NOT buy this game. When it says native Windows, it REALLY means it.3 found this helpful
A little masterpiece. Relaxing atmosphere and minimalism. I recommend to support developer and our most beautiful planet.1 found this helpful
Very cute and for a good cause to boot.
This game is so simple and in the same time a whole universe appears in front of your eyes. I love it. 🥰🥰
