Latest Release: v0.5.0

Notice: v0.5.0 is still being prepared for release, most links below will not work right now. See Previous Releases in the mean time!

Windows

The Microsoft™ Windows release of Sketchy Maze currently comes as a ZIP file that you can extract anywhere and then run the sketchymaze.exe program to start the game.

Note: I do not yet have a code signing certificate for the Windows release, so you may need to click through the "Unknown Publisher" warning.

Let me know if you need a 32-bit build of this game.


GNU/Linux

Flatpak (All Distros)

The easiest cross-distro way to download Sketchy Maze is via Flatpak, which is well supported on most popular Linux distributions including Fedora, Ubuntu, Debian and others.

# Add the Flatpak repository for this game (only needed the first time).
# NOTE: "doodle" is Sketchy Maze's internal codename, you can name this remote
# whatever you want but it should match the install command later.
$ flatpak remote-add --if-not-exists doodle https://download.sketchymaze.com/flatpak/doodle.flatpakrepo

# Then install Sketchy Maze:
$ flatpak install doodle com.sketchymaze.Doodle

# When there's an update, getting the latest version is simple too:
$ flatpak update

Fedora (.rpm)

TBD.

Ubuntu & Debian (.deb)

TBD.

Tarball

You can download Sketchy Maze as a .tar.gz archive which you can extract anywhere and run. The binary is built on a modern Fedora system and hopefully should run as-is on other modern GNU/Linux systems, but sometimes shared library versions of SDL2 may not match your computer.
