Treesplease, the innovative minds behind their debut game Longleaf Valley, have shared an exciting update: their initiative has successfully led to the planting of over two million real-world trees. This remarkable achievement was made possible through their partnership with the Eden Reforestation Project, resulting in an impressive CO2 offset of approximately 42,000 tonnes. As we step into 2025, Treesplease is also rolling out a fresh Veganuary event, drawing inspiration from the Veganuary Cookbook.
Regardless of your stance on veganism, you won't want to miss out on this event. It offers a chance to explore new in-game content inspired by the spirit of New Year's resolutions, along with the opportunity to collect charming baby animal rewards.
Go greenIt's been an outstanding year for Treesplease.
