The yearning tree is a game/experience by Alexander Ocias, a quiet place for you to explore. (Controls: click and drag to rotate, scroll to zoom, click to interact)

    I think I've spoken to everyone and can't seem to zoom out further than the overview. It's an interesting concept, but I definitely feel like I'm missing something. Is the point that we're left yearning for a game?

    Yes I don't think there's an ending once you found everyone

    I agree - I like the idea, seems like a nice start for something - but right now that's all I suppose

    Just some text once you find everyone would make it so much better.

    Playing on the Firefox. First getting this message: "You need a browser which supports WebGL to run this content. Try installing Firefox.". And then this: "An error occured running the Unity content on this page. See your browser's JavaScript console for more info. The error was: uncaught exception: out of memory".WTH?

    Another Unity game that doesn't work. Surprise, surprise. I wish game developers would just dump Unity and go back to Flash. At least it works.

    if you zoom in by scrolling then you can find little people in the tree and near the glowing thing.

    I'd love this with some sort of conclusion... There's no way of telling whether you've found everyone, no resolution for the things the characters have said, no reason why you're on the ground and they're in the trees... If this were to become a fuller game, I'd be interested.

    Unity games are so gorgeous...
    Bart, maybe you can help me out? This reminds me of another game you posted a while back with little characters scattered about the room. Do you remember what that one was called?
