Open Beta

Instant response.Flawless movement.The experience isPURE

Leave browser lag behind. PURE is a desktop app for Windows and Mac built for quick input and stable physics, so HaxBall feels sharp and fair. Same game you know, wrapped in an experience that keeps up with you.

Works on Windows and Mac. Grab the installer that matches your rig from the Downloads section below.

Client toolkit

Everything around the pitch, built into one client.

Profiles, room shortcuts, replay tools, Discord presence, performance controls, and quality-of-life features designed for players who want HaxBall to feel sharper from the first touch.

All-in-one Tool included

The same kind of in-room helpers the community already loves, already inside the app. Fewer tabs, fewer add-ons, more time actually playing.

No browser ads

Play in a clean window that feels like a real app: just the pitch, the chat, and you, without the clutter of a browser around it.

Unlimited FPS

Want motion to feel extra fluid? Raise the frame cap and enjoy smoother gameplay on both Windows and Mac when your setup can handle it.

Performance mode

One switch for a lighter feel on busy nights: the client stays quick, Discord stays under your control, and you pick the balance that fits you.

Instant Replay (F8)

Save that one goal or clutch save when you want a highlight to share, without digging through long recordings.

Discord Rich Presence

Friends can see you are in a match, on your terms, without turning your session into a wall of extra noise.

User profiles

Keep separate looks and logins for league, friends, or smurf nights. Swap profiles in a click instead of juggling browsers or accounts.

Favorite rooms

Save the rooms you trust so they are easy to open again, right from the client, matched to each profile you use.

Chat shortcuts

Turn short phrases into full messages or commands in chat, including quick emoji, so typing keeps up with the pace of the room.

Glass UI

Optional frosted look around the game when you want the window to feel a bit more polished.

Player auth & Discord

See and update your player identity in plain language, and link Discord when you want your friends to recognize you there too.

Backup, restore & export

Copy your settings to a new PC or keep a safe copy of profiles and shortcuts, plus save a chat log when a match is worth remembering.

Competitive integrity

Fair leagues start from a trusted client environment.

PURE is not just a polished wrapper. We are evolving the client with antifake-first controls and anticheat hardening, so organizers and players can trust who is on the pitch.

Antifake firstLeague-ready security

We are selling competitive trust: verified identities, reduced fake abuse, and a tighter environment for official matches.

Browser-only sessions make league enforcement harder. A controlled client gives us stronger levers to protect ladders, reports, and match integrity as the scene grows.

01

Identity trust

Lower fake-account impact in league rooms.

02

Cheat resistance

Harder runtime for scripts and suspicious automation.

03

Ops confidence

Cleaner evidence flow for admins and organizers.

Antifake identity checks

Competitive rooms need real accountability. We hardened identity flow to reduce fake-player abuse and make league participation more trustworthy.

Client-side anticheat hardening

We are actively tightening the runtime against scripts and suspicious automation so matches stay skill-based, not exploit-based.

League-first security direction

PURE is not only a UI upgrade. It is a controlled client environment designed to support fair play standards for organized leagues.

Versioned downloads

Official builds, away from the room servers.

Heavy installers live on Cloudflare R2, not inside the website deploy. The landing links out to official versioned builds, keeping room servers away from download traffic.

PURE Client v0.1.0

Production release links · assets hosted on Cloudflare R2

Windows · x64

PURE-Client-v1.0.0-windows-x64.exe

Standalone installer for league players on Windows 10/11.

macOS · Universal

PURE-Client-v1.0.0-macos-universal.dmg

Disk image for Apple Silicon and Intel Macs.

Setup

First launch, step by step.

Choose the asset for your operating system from Downloads and download only from the linked R2 release file. Release files are hosted outside the VPS so downloads do not interfere with league rooms.

Windows

Unzip the download and double-click the app. No installer wizard. If your antivirus flags the file, it is often a false positive for small indie apps.

macOS

Open the disk image, drag PURE into Applications, then launch from there. If macOS blocks it, check the release notes for the current signed/notarized build status.

Official files

Use only the download buttons on this page. Each build links to the official R2-hosted release file, so you always know which version you are installing.

Discord spaces

Two hubs for the client and the community.

One Discord follows the client itself: releases, bugs, install help, and feature requests. The other is where leagues, Funcup events, announcements, and competitive rooms live.

Support PURE

Help fund the client and the next league tools.

Donations go toward the unglamorous parts that make PURE easier to build, trust, and run: client releases, hosting, download storage, code signing, macOS notarization, public dashboards, and better tooling for leagues.

Direct support

Fuel releases, hosting, and smoother installs.

Contributions help cover the recurring work behind client releases, release hosting, player testing, and the setup improvements that make PURE easier to install.

Performance goal

Less browser latency

PURE focuses on smoother gameplay, sharper input, and a desktop runtime that keeps HaxBall feeling responsive during serious matches.

Competitive goal

Cleaner league environment

Moving away from the browser gives the team more control over the runtime, helping protect matches from cheaters, scripters, and fakers.
