The Heartfelt Words from the "Tree's Love Crossing Above" Team

At first, we thought Xiaoshu was a character we created, but by the time the script was completed, we realized that he is actually a projection of our own inner emotions. As we sketched out the characters' destinies, we were also weaving our own paths of growth.

"Tree's Love Crossing Above" is not a conventional romance-themed FMV game. While preserving the emotional core, we have incorporated more reflections on life and destiny. We are well aware that our hardware capabilities simply can't compete with high-investment commercial games. However, we firmly believe that it is sincere emotion that truly touches people's hearts.

As the first domestic BL-themed FMV game, we were under immense pressure. The original inspiration for creating "Tree's Love Crossing Above" came from a simple idea: to use the imagery of a tree to interpret the complex emotional connections between people. In fact, fate is like the branches of a tree; the direction in which they extend is determined by destiny. When many such branches come together, they form an intricate canopy, interwoven like a grid, filled with intersections of fate.

We aim to craft a love story that blends a romantic essence with realistic entanglements, allowing players to fully immerse themselves in the interactive experience while resonating with authentic emotional reflections. For this story, we have dedicated tremendous effort. While most FMV game scripts are completed within a few months, we spent several times longer meticulously polishing every detail. We have always held onto a steadfast belief: once we choose this path, we will see it through to the end. While our lack of experience may lead to imperfections, we would rather spend an extra year relentlessly refining every detail than compromise on quality. As the creators often say: "Even if we can't achieve perfection, we won't allow regrets — we must exhaust every effort to leave nothing undone."

This game still bears many marks of inexperience, and we are acutely aware of its shortcomings. However, these experiences are guiding the development of the sequel. We hope that through this series, we can bring more possibilities to FMV games—not just romance, but also richer expressions about life, choices, and growth.

Finally, we thank all the players who are willing to give "Tree" a chance. Every experience and share from the players is the nourishment for this "tree" to grow. We look forward to writing more touching stories with you in this world of interwoven lines and grids.

When you turn on the screen, we hope you can feel the warmth—that is our warmth, the impulse from the bottom of our hearts to connect with you.

“Please forgive its clumsiness; one day, this tree will grow tall.”

About the Game

"Tree's Love Crossing Above" —— Your Choices, His Destiny, Coordinates of Love

This is an immersive romantic FMV game. The protagonist "Xiaoshu" will encounter four completely different romantic encounters. Every choice made by the player will become a mark on the compass of destiny, leading to sweet, regretful, reversed, or fated endings. The four interwoven love stories in this game create a delicate and complex maze of emotions, with over 40 possible endings to unlock. From betrayal to redemption, from pure love to desire, will true love ultimately be found at the intersection of these paths?

In Xiaoshu's story, players will become the masters of fate, making every choice on his behalf and shaping the protagonist's destiny with their own hands. At the crossroads of love, every small decision will lead to a completely different destination.

In Xiaoshu's story, players are not just observers but participants, experiencing emotional and romantic trials alongside the protagonist. The love logic in this game is anything but formulaic or simply black-and-white. Just as in the real world, what will be tested is the player's approach to love: honesty or manipulation, boldness or retreat, innocence or desire, taking the initiative or waiting, being assertive or submissive. What will you choose?

In Xiaoshu’s thread of fate, there are no rigid rights or wrongs — your choices shift with timing, with whom you meet, and flow with intuition, adapt to the moment. You may find this path "too difficult," but that’s precisely why you should lean into its nuances, gleaning the wisdom of love through every stumble. You might also think the male lead is too "weird," but you should savor that feeling—because if we weren't all a little odd, how else would we have ended up here together?

“Every tap of your finger is the beginning of love.”

Character Introduction

Xiaoshu: The owner of the Treehouse, still in his youth, chose to run a pancake shop in a small town, living a laid-back life. He may seem like a good-for-nothing, but he has a unique aura that always draws people to him. Some even say he carries the scent of trees.

Baize: A writer with a eccentric personality and bold, explicit speech makes people dare not face him, yet there is nowhere to escape, as if he might pounce at any moment.

Zihan: A cheerful young man wearing a smiling mask, pretending to be relaxed and hiding as a “good buddy” by your side, often conceals a huge secret.

Linqiu: The person Xiaoshu once admired has now become a down-and-out middle-aged man. Does he still have the charm of his younger days, or has he undergone some unexpected "transformation"?

A'nan: An indifferent exterior, a face eternally marked with scars, yet the softness within cannot be concealed. How Xiaoshu can enter that cold world has become a challenge. What lies beyond those layers of barriers, and how will Xiaoshu explore it...

A’qing: She was a mean landlady who would pounce on any handsome man, and she was the one who had been the harshest to him, but when it mattered most, she was also the one by his side.

Game Introduction

His seatmate (Xiaoshu & Zihan)

Xiaoshu's classmate from five years ago, they parted ways due to divergent life choices, only to be brought together again by fate. Players need to pick up on subtle clues and make decisions. Every exchange of glances and every evasion, every interweaving of memories and reality, will redefine this relationship. Is it about bravely breaking through the constraints to rekindle the past connection, or facing reality and parting ways gracefully?

Secrets Between Teacher-Student (Xiaoshu & Linqiu)

After graduating from high school, Xiaoshu thought he would never see his teacher again. The admiration he felt for his teacher was supposed to be buried deep within the passage of time. But fate had other plans. When they meet again, will the age difference become a shackle? Will the teacher-student relationship be an obstacle? And for Teacher Lin, facing midlife crises, societal norms, and a stalled career—under all these pressures, can he confront his true feelings?

The Battle for Redemption (Xiaoshu & A'nan)

On an otherwise ordinary night, Xiaoshu welcomed an extraordinary guest. His indifferent gaze was chilling, and he refused to let anyone close. But Xiaoshu saw through his vulnerability. Even though he was pushed away and hurt over and over again, Xiaoshu stubbornly stayed by his side.

This is a tug-of-war between hurt and dependence. Xiaoshu's stubbornness and A'nan's indifference, excessive concern clashing with wounded pride, the struggle to maintain distance while confronting inner estrangement... When wounds run too deep, can they ever heal? As he tries to let down his guard, will this pathological entanglement lead to redemption, or will they inevitably end up mutually destroyed?

Piercing Through Desire (Xiaoshu & Baize)

In the eyes of the world, he is a black hole of desire. His unconventional profession, coupled with his bold actions and explicit words, makes people feel both terrified and inescapably drawn to him.

Probing into human nature is his hobby. He keeps testing Xiaoshu's limits. Just as Xiaoshu is about to break down, he quietly leaves and nonchalantly says, "Stop pretending." Baize is lonely inside. His eccentricity is often just a cover for himself. Only by piercing through that tough shell can you see his shattered and vulnerable heart.

Xiaoshu curiously yet cautiously peeks into Baize's world. At first, Baize only regarded him as a test article, merely to confirm his disillusionment with human nature. But the roles of hunter and prey keep shifting, and something unexpected is happening.
