Gameplay
Graphics

PolyPine is a recreational "simulator". We create our own forests that serve as habitats for various species of animals and plants. The development of this game was led by independent developer Anton Holmberg, who runs a small development studio called Cloudberry Pine.

Gameplay

In PolyPine we watch events from the side. The game allows us to create forests from scratch and they can be located in diverse terrain - from plains, through hills, fjords and mountains, ending with marshes and lake valleys. If necessary, we can adapt the topography of a given location to individual preferences.

Forest care

What we fill our forest with determines which animals will consider it their home. Different species have been differentiated in of habitat needs. For example, squirrels need trees to live, while butterflies need flowers.

It's worth ing that interacting with certain animals triggers their characteristic behaviors. Elks can fertilize the soil with their droppings, foxes hunt other creatures, while voles gnaw on tree roots, leading to their damage.

A special mention should be given to the points we earn as we progress. They constitute a kind of currency, in exchange for which we can summon more animals and unlock and plant crops.

Forest life cycle

Our forest is also exposed to a range of dangers such as fires, storms or destructive attacks of bark beetles. They can also be used to one's advantage, as they drive the life cycle, which in consequence can result in the flourishing of the entire ecosystem.
