About the Game

What the Heck is Trees Hate You?

Trees Hate You is a rage-comedy trap game created by solo developer Tykenn. You hike through a beautiful-looking forest that absolutely despises you. Every "safe" path is a setup for the funniest, most humiliating death you've ever experienced.

It's not just hard - it's smart. The trees use psychology, fake road signs, fake safety, and punchline-level traps to mess with your head. Think "I Wanna Be The Guy" meets "Level Devil," but way funnier and way meaner.

Why Players Can't Stop Playing

(Even When They Hate It)

Trap-First Design

The forest plans every death like a stand-up comedy routine. Clean path → fake safety → instant punchline death. You'll laugh before you even respawn.

Lightning-Fast Retry Loop

Die in 3 seconds? Respawn in 1. No long loading screens. No frustration. Just pure chaotic joy.

Multiple Biomes & Upgrades

Start in the classic evil forest, then unlock cursed swamps, haunted orchards, and more. Collect ridiculous hats, find the secret axe, and maybe… fight back?

Controller & Keyboard Friendly

Simple controls. Deep troll mechanics. Zero hand-holding.

"The pause menu isn't safe either." - every player ever

Solo developer Tykenn started Trees Hate You in June 2025 as a tiny joke project. A single TikTok clip went mega-viral in November 2025 and turned it into a full Steam release planned for 2026.

Now the game has multiple biomes, character creation, collectibles, and the most evil trees in indie gaming history.
