We have officially made the jump to Unity 5! Thanks to everyone who opted into the beta and tested it out! We received some great feedback and we feel really positive with this update and going forward.

Now that we’re on Unity 5, we’ll be investigating on improving the graphic quality of the game with physics based shaders. We want to make sure everything is running smoothly with the upgrade first. We have an awesome new Lua Atom Editor that you can use outside of Tabletop Simulator. You can read more about it below and in our Knowledge Base.

We’ve got two more games available as DLC, Tiny Epic Kingdoms by Gamelyn Games and RARRR!! by Ape Games! We’re excited to see what you think! Only the host needs to own any of our DLCs.
