Note about the Mac OS X version — compared to the last release we have a proper self-contained bundle finally! However, if you have your Mac configured to accept only signed apps, you’ll need to manually allow DRL to run after installation (Ctrl-Right click the App and choose Open) — if you have any problem installing, feel free to ask at the forums!

Note about the Linux versions — you’ll need SDL, SDL_mixer, SDL_image and libpng installed, and smpeg if you want to use the HQ versions. On some linux distro’s mp3 support is not enabled in SDL_mixer — a workaround has been posted on the forum .
Low quality downloads (deprecated)

Additionally a low quality version is supplied. It is generally deprecated — but if your system doesn’t run MP3 files properly, you want a small portable version or for any other reason, here they are.
