Anyone has an idea why only PC and Nintendo Switch are listed as platforms...? What about Playstation, Xbox, Mac etc?

Presumably they prioritized the platforms that would be the primary market. And "PC"/"steam" includes Mac here.
In the comments, Ron said that the game was developed on Mac and that Windows is the “port”, so it would definitely be available on Mac.
They really ought to add a little Apple icon to that, because most Mac gamers will assume PC doesn't include them.
Agreed. I wish everyone would just standardise on "Mac" and "Windows" rather than the frustratingly ambiguous "PC" (which half the time means both and the other half means just Windows...)
PC is the hardware, not the OS run
I think we're in agreement. If it was software only available on Linux, you wouldn't label it "PC" would you?
Ok, thanks.
Its a timed release on Switch so it's temporarily exclusive, but the other consoles will almost certainly follow.
It's a point-and-click adventure game. The PC has a mouse. (A Mac version is already announced.) The Switch has a touchscreen. Other consoles don't have any of those.
