The First Tree
A third-person exploration game centred around two parallel stories: a fox trying to find her missing family, and a young couple dealing with a tragedy in theirs.
Players take control of the fox on a poignant and beautiful journey that crescendos at the source of life, and perhaps results in the understanding of death.
Along the way, players can uncover artefacts and stories from the young couple’s life as they to become intertwined in the fox’s journey towards The First Tree.

What did we do
Console Porting
Our Unify technology was used to produce console ports for Xbox One, Switch and PS4 with simultaneous launch.
Performance Optimisation
The game was optimised to provide locked 60 fps on the PS4 Pro and Xbox One X and 30 fps on the other platforms. A custom shadow proxy technique was implemented for the many trees across the landscape.
