Latest Release: v0.5.0 (March 31, 2021)

Change History

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.


Mac OS

  • Intel 64-bit: TBD.

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.

# Download the .flatpak package. NOTE: it's distributed as a stand-alone app
# for now, a flatpak repo will be added at some point.
$ wget https://download.sketchymaze.com/release/v0.5.0/sketchy-maze-0.5.0.flatpak

# Install the .flatpak package.
$ flatpak install --user sketchy-maze-0.5.0.flatpak

# Run it. There should also be a standard app launcher in your menu.
$ flatpak run com.sketchymaze.Doodle

Fedora (.rpm)

Ubuntu & Debian (.deb)

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.
