## What is Save the Trees?

By playing Save the Trees, you'll not only be saving trees in the digital world but also in REAL LIFE! This is because TippyTap will donate to Arbor Day Foundation, one of the largest non-profit tree-planting organizations!

Bounce and hop from tree stump to tree stump to grow them into big beautiful trees!
Save special trees at the end of each level!
Save our planet Earth by playing!

A message from TippyTap's director, Mace:

TippyTap nor the game Save the Trees are affiliated with the Arbor Day Foundation but just like you I want the world to be a better place!

I have had the idea to make a game like this for a while - a game where playing actually has a positive impact on our real world - and the day I found out about the #TeamTrees movement, I realized now is my chance! I began brainstorming ideas for what game would fit this theme and came up with Save the Trees by my second idea!

Since that day, I've had no social life and not a whole lot of life in general since I've been working my buttcheeks off - they're quite sore from sitting for so long, just thought I'd let you know - to finish this game as soon as possible! I've managed to finish the game in 5 days (it's the 5th day as I'm writing this and it is currently 3:30am).

Anyway, before my head falls through my keyboard and possibly my desk as well, I hope you enjoy Save the Trees and thanks for improving our Earth!

### 3/5 — Good game but could be improved… please read!

*2025-05-23, version 1.0*

Hey there, I just want to say, this game has great potential, it is challenging in a good way, takes a bit of a learning curve, but when you get used to it, it is really fun to play.

Things I like about this game:

1. The speed of the main character makes the game challenging, but it’s fun!
2. No ads, at least at the moment, means no interruptions during the game.
3. I like the trees that sprout up at the end of each level.
4. The ui is simple and it helps the game run smoothly while also being easy on the eyes.

Some things I feel can be improved upon:
1 The music and sound effects (or the lack of them) makes it more difficult to follow the character as it jumps from stump to stump.

It could benefit from a rhythm based approach. With each level having a different music track.

2 This game really could use a progress tracker, to let us see when the game starts helping the trees, also, if the game doesn’t right now, perhaps you could add a donation button, one for you, to keep yourself making good games, but also a shout out to a favorite tree organization like the Team Trees you mentioned in the game’s description for example. 

3 . I really do like how this game doesn’t have ads in it, but perhaps the ads could help you generate revenue to actually help the trees in real life, so far I haven’t encountered any ads, at least at this point in time.

4. Would like to see animal characters and enemy characters in the future, to add background details but also to add to the game on a meaningful way. Like maybe have a level tracker that shows you how far you are in the game. That would be neat but I think it would also help players stay focused. Also would like to see a story/plot adventure mode. Anything you do in the future I would like to see!

Finally, 5. the game seems in it’s beginning stages so, I would like to see these changes if possible, no rush! Like I said, this game has the potential to become great (awesome!) 
I can see this game having a future on itch.io and on Nintendo’s shop, 
thank you for sharing this game with all of us, looking forward to seeing more games from you in the future! Take care!

### 4/5 — Ads?

*2024-08-04, version 1.0*

It’s a fun game, but I haven’t seen an ad in a while. Is this game still raising money to plant trees?

### 5/5 — Great cause!

*2022-07-03, version 1.0*

It’s really fun but there is only one down, so many ads :(. It’s fun and addicting and it inspired me to plant a dogwood tree in my backyard! You should really try it!

### 3/5 — AD After Every Round

*2021-04-11, version 1.0*

Very annoying w/ the ads, but overall a fun game

### 3/5 — Okay game. Needs better explanation for user.

*2020-10-30*

Like the game (it’s okay), love the idea! There needs to be a section where the user can see how many trees are being planted by the app and how many (even a fraction) is the result of the user playing the game. 
Would be nice to have an easy interface that shows how much money the company earns and how much of that goes on advertising, salaries and then planting trees etc.

### 5/5 — For a great cause

*2020-08-22, version 1.0*

I love this game so much. It’s for a good cause, to help our earth by planting trees. The game isn’t the most fun, but its also not boring. I think it would be more fun if maybe you added some sort of currency where you could buy character and tree skins, upgrades, etc. This is the only game where I don’t mind watching the ads as I know the money goes towards something good. Although I want to help raise as much money as possible, I feel an ad after even every 2 levels would be a little more reasonable then after every single level, thankfully you can usually skip or x them out fairly quickly. Definitely recommend, it’s not perfect but the cause makes up for all the imperfections

### 4/5 — Difficult to move

*2020-08-05, version 1.0*

The character is difficult to move and can there be an option for a main menu before the game starts so that the vibration can be turned off?

### 4/5 — Some improvements

*2020-02-01, version 1.0*

Very good but you should add different skins witch you buy with sapling coins and a story mode also add some music

### 5/5 — actually a fun game

*2019-12-02, version 1.0*

its just an infinite run style game but its has pretty visuals and low amount of ads it set in levels so its kinda has a goal rather than it just going on forever

### 5/5 — Amazing game

*2019-11-02, version 1.0*

it has a great cause, the game itself is super fun and addicting, my only thing would be that I think they should add some kind of currency to buy either upgrades or skins or something.
