CrewLink

The main way folks have been play proximity chat games is via CrewLink.

This should be as simple as just:

1. Going to the tags page,
2. choosing the most recent release (as of this writing that's 2.0.1
3. downloading the .exe file (ex. CrewLink-Steup-2.0.1.exe
4. running that .exe file (ie. double-click it)

Unless you are hosting, you shouldn't need to do anything more. It should automatically connect to other players once you join a game.

Running CrewLink on a Mac

Just use the web version.

Running CrewLink on Linux

There's a fork at https://github.com/zbanks/CrewLink but it hasn't been updated for 2.x releases ☹ Just use the web version.

Running CrewLink on 32-bit Windows installs

Apparently you can't, but BetterCrewLink should work (and is interoperable).

Troubleshooting CrewLink

Things sometimes go a bit screwy. Pressing ⌃+r to reload CrewLink (which is basically just a website running locally on your computer) often fixes things.
