Tabletop Playground game sessions are coming to Windows PC, with Linux and Mac in tow. Thanks to developer Plasticity Studios. The games due to release in Q2 2020 on Steam.
Modularity Games, the publisher from the creators of ModDB/IndieDB. Now partnering with Plasticity Studios so they can publish their debut title, Tabletop Playground. A modern take on digital tabletop gaming. Tabletop Playground is due to release on Windows PC in Q2 2020. But of course, I asked about Linux support.
We’d love to be able to bring TP to Linux and Mac in the future. But our focus for the initial launch will be Windows. That doesn’t rule out releasing Tabletop Playground on Linux and Mac at launch. Or in updates soon after. It just depends on how development goes!
While this does not a firm day one release for Tabletop Playground. Linux support could arrive at launch or a followup update. Check out the trailer.
