Gibbon: Beyond the Trees
A downloadable Gibbon for Windows and macOS
Gibbon: Beyond the Trees is a hand-drawn adventure following a lost gibbon as they embark on a dangerous journey into unknown lands. Race to freedom in liberation mode, or play through an hour-long narrative that captures the real struggle of living creatures around the world. Master the gibbon’s art of brachiation (swinging from branch to branch) at high speed, building momentum, pulling off spectacular somersaults, and launching yourself higher and further into the air with the help of your fellow Gibbons, feeling the thrill and exhilaration of life in an untamed jungle.
Features:
- Master acrobatic moves, including launching from another gibbon’s hands in mid air
Experience free-flowing dynamic movement based on brachiation, the way real gibbons swing through the trees
- A touching adventure of a family of gibbons trying to survive amid an encroaching human threat.
- Play through an hourlong adventure in story mode, or race to freedom through a procedurally generated jungle in liberation mode.
- Stunning 2D hand painted visuals that breathe life into a rapidly vanishing world.
- Explore varied environments, from the wild jungles of Southeast Asia to the hectic human world beyond.
- Collect all encyclopedia entries and find out more about gibbons and their habitat.
- Gibbon: Beyond the Trees deals with challenging but acute environmental topics, including deforestation, poaching and climate change.

This looks amazing great job!
Itch version is way out of date. Missing several of them that Steam has gotten.
Just uploaded a big update. Sorry for the wait. Unfortunately we still can't provide Daily Runs/Leaderboards here on itch.
Simplesmente lindo e significativo!
Are any of the updates to the game that are available on Steam (encyclopedia pages, daily runs) ever coming to the itch.io release??
We just uploaded a big update. Including encyclopedia, polish, bug fixes, new levels and areas,...
Unfortunately due to technical constraints we are still not able to provide Daily Runs. Sorry!
Has anyone tried to Wine this game? I only have Linux, but want to try this game.
Gorgeous game, and you really nailed the swinging physics - it feels so satisfying the way your character moves.

Awesome game and really beautifull graphic. Bravo😁
I will think about getting this game, when I have the funds, looks amazing!
Thank you for speaking up for animals! Thank you for addressing the issues of climate change, deforestation, poachers, and habitat losses.
You should advertise more, this game deserves more attention.
