Hammerting dwarven strategy game may get support on Linux with Windows PC. According to developer Warpzone Studios. Just announced and due to arrive on Steam Early Access and Itch.io later in 2020. Team17 and Warpzone Studios have their first reveal. Due to arrive in the high fantasy management and strategy game, Hammerting. The games in development for Windows PC. Also scheduled for a Steam launch later this year. But it also looks like there will be a chance of Linux support.

I'd give it maybe a 50/50 chance? We would really like to, we like Linux. But we do need to focus on Windows first.

Since Hammerting is an Early Access release. This is why Windows PC will be a primary focus. And the developer also wants to see how well the build progresses. As the Linux market share is still an issue for many developers. But that being said, the game engine here is called WarpCore. Which is also due to support modding in the future. Likewise, there will be a lot on the plate for Warpzone going into Early Access. Who are prepared to add more platforms as development progresses. Hammerting features multi faceted gameplay mechanics. While combining crafting and deep base building. Along with combat and exploration as players manage a colony of industrious dwarves. All fighting to survive in the dangerous cavernous depths. Carving out their territory underneath the Mountains of Mara. Sort of like mixing Terraria and Dungeons 3. A closer look is available to watch now.

Players will also have to helping the colony. So doing things like developing and crafting new weapons. Helping to aid their Overworld allies during an epic war against evil. And during the course of Hammerting, they will face unique challenges. Such as goblin raids on their caverns. To traversing the darkest corners for the most valuable ores to loot. There is also the launch of a new developer diary video series, Into The Forge.

Features
