True Tree

Created for the Savvy Game Jam — A game about imagination, resistance, and the power of connection.

What happens when kids use imagination to fight for what adults gave up on?

True Tree is a turn-based RPG where four children try to protect their neighborhood’s last tree from being cut down. But instead of just protesting in the real world, they dive into a surreal fantasy—where city developers become monsters, bureaucracy turns into magic, and childhood memories become the battlefield.

What begins as play becomes something more serious, more emotional, and more unexpected.

 Core Gameplay

• Turn-Based Combat with a Rhythm Twist
  Choose between Attack, Skill, Block (QTE Parry), or Run each turn. Attacks generate mana, and parries can completely nullify incoming damage.

• Imagination-Driven Enemies
  Fights are symbolic — you’re battling the adult world’s apathy and greed, not just random creatures.

• Party Synergy
  Characters help each other with combo interactions — timing matters, and each role contributes in unique ways:

  • Abdullah (Attacker)

  • Amjad (Healer)

World & Story

Explore a semi-open world shaped by childhood imagination — a fusion of urban reality and symbolic dreamscapes.

• Each area is a reflection of a real-world conflict (e.g., protesting the tree’s removal)

From playful tree-climbing scenes to intense confrontations with glitching monsters, this game evolves emotionally and visually as you progress.
