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!
