Test it with the demo
The free demo uses the same engine and art pipeline as the full game. If the demo holds a stable frame rate on your machine, the release should behave similarly. The browser build is the least reliable test because it depends on the browser and WebGL.
Requirements FAQ
What are the minimum requirements?
Steam lists Windows 10 or higher and 1 GB of available storage. No CPU, GPU, or RAM minimum has been published, which usually means the game is lightweight but does not guarantee performance on old hardware.
Will Trees Hate You run on my laptop?
Probably, if it runs Windows 10 and has 1 GB free. The published requirements are unusually low. The demo is the best test: if the demo runs well, the full game should be in the same range.
Does it run on Linux?
Yes, Steam lists Linux support. There is no separate Linux requirements table, so use the Windows minimum as a rough guide.
Does it run on Mac?
No. macOS is not listed and no Mac version has been announced.
How big is the download?
The full game needs about 1 GB of storage according to Steam. The itch.io Windows demo is about 108 MB. The Steam Demo size is not listed separately.
Is it Steam Deck Verified?
No compatibility rating has been published. Check the Steam page for a Verified or Playable badge after release.
What do I need for the browser demo?
A desktop browser with WebGL and a keyboard. The first load downloads the game assets, so give it time. If input does not work, click inside the game frame first.
