Beta 4 0.9.4.4 Released: 0.9.4.4 has been released, fixing an issue with YOG not displaying IRC users as it was supposed to.

Note: Glob2 may not work on OS X Snow Leopard. We are waiting on a patch to SDL before we can update our binary

If you have installed the game but still have problems running it or if you cannot compile the source distribution, try to look at the Frequently Asked Questions page, which contains a section related to installation problems.

Looking for the latest development source code? See the Compiling page for information on how to download and compile from our Mercurial repository. From time to time we do development snapshots, too but be aware that those are not yet released for a reason.


Downloads



You can still download the Older Releases. They can be useful if you want a binary for a system for which the latest release has not been packaged yet.
Please keep in mind that Internet game will most likely not work with older releases. (See What version should i choose to play in the FAQ.)
