addedGood news! The First Tree is working on Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, and PS4! They're not quite playable all the way through, and the frame rate is atrocious (15 FPS on Switch, yikes!), but we're working hard to optimize and add new content. Which brings me to my new point, I want to do a big update for the console releases and Steam, so please let me know in the comments what you would like to see the most! I'm thinking of adding things like dev commentary mode, new items, new secrets, and improving the controls. It's amazing in this day and age that one guy can develop and publish to all 3 major consoles (of course, can't forget Matt from Do Games who is a genius engineer and is helping port the game). About 5 years ago you would've needed a team of dozens to even consider that. If any of you have questions about being a solo dev, let me know. I'll have release announcements soon hopefully, so stay tuned!
