@github-actions github-actions released this 08 Oct 16:13

The first release of Howdah, a desktop app for playing and studying
Arimaa on Windows, Linux and macOS.

  • Play and review: the complete rules, a board with drag, hover-arrow
    and step-by-step input, a move tree with variations and comments, and
    game records in the Arimaa PGN-style format, including the arimaa.com
    archive's.
  • Engines: play against or watch AEI engines with clocks and time
    controls. Sharp and OpFor are offered for download on the first run.
  • Analysis: an engine searches the shown position, with its
    evaluation and best line, which you can add to the move tree with a click.
  • arimaa.com: log in to the gameroom to play live or postal games,
    rated or unrated, and to watch live games.

See the README for more and

for the full list.

System Download
Windows (x64) Installer or MSI
macOS (Apple Silicon) Disk image
Linux (x86_64) .deb (Debian, Ubuntu), .rpm (Fedora, RHEL) or AppImage (any; chmod +x it)

The builds aren't code signed, so the first start may need an extra step:

  • Windows: SmartScreen says it protected your PC; click
    More info, then Run anyway.
  • macOS: after macOS refuses to open it, go to System Settings,
    Privacy & Security, and click Open Anyway by Howdah's entry.
    If macOS says the app is damaged, run
    xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Applications/Howdah.app.
