About this project
What does Rusty Trees add?
Rusty Trees
Rusty Trees brings the satisfying tree harvesting mechanics from RUST into Minecraft. Hit the trunk, chase the moving red X for bonus progress, and finish the job with a final strike that brings down the entire tree.
Played RUST? It should feel instantly familiar. Never touched it? You still get a more interactive and satisfying way to gather wood.
This mechanic also works with modded variants of trees.
