Quoting: calleI played the original many years ago. Does the MP work?

Whatever Happened To Torchlight On Linux? UPDATED
29 Jun 2014 at 10:52 am UTC

I once wrote an e mail to Frozenbyte about the status of the linux versions of Trine and the shadowgrounds games and this was their answer:

Hi Jurek,

Thank you for your support. I'm glad to hear you've enjoyed the games!

We are hoping to eventually bring the games to Steam Linux. Trine first and the Shadowgrounds games possibly later. Unfortunately though, I can't give any estimates - this might take quite a long time, as it is not as simple as it might look like. The original ports of the games were done by a partner company, and we do not own the source codes; we are actually planning our own ports. However, we are also very busy with other projects at the moment.

Let me know if you have any other questions about our games. Cheers!

Best,
Riikka
Frozenbyte team
