How to Download ITGmania for Windows, Mac, or Linux

Updated

ITGmania is a free, open-source dance game you can download directly from itgmania.com. The current version is 1.3.0, and the site offers separate builds for Windows, macOS, and Linux, plus a portable build that works across all platforms. Pick your download based on two things: your operating system and whether you want the bundled songs.

Download Options at a Glance

Build Platform Includes Songs? Notes
Windows Installer Windows 7 or higher Yes Full install with Club Fantastic songs
macOS Intel macOS 11 (Big Sur) or higher Yes For Intel Macs; also works on M1
macOS Silicon macOS 11 (Big Sur) or higher Yes Specifically for Apple Silicon Macs
Linux Ubuntu 18.04 or higher and compatible distributions Yes Full install
Portable Build All platforms No Single folder; Intel binary only for macOS (works on M1)

The site also lets you download just the program without songs if you already have your own song library. The full installers include the songs from Club Fantastic.

How to Choose Your Build

If you want to start playing immediately

Download the full installer for your operating system. Click the icon for your platform on the download page, and you get the game plus the Club Fantastic songs in one package. This is the simplest path for a first-time setup.

If you already have songs

Download the program-only version for your platform. You keep your existing song library and just add the ITGmania program files.

If you want everything in one folder

Use the portable build. It contains executables for all platforms in a single folder, which is useful for running the game from a USB drive or keeping files self-contained. Note that it includes no songs, and the macOS binary is Intel-only (it still works on M1).

If you're on Apple Silicon

Choose the macOS Silicon build rather than the Intel one. Both require macOS 11 (Big Sur) or higher, but the Silicon build is made specifically for Apple Silicon Macs.

What You Get After Installing

ITGmania ships with Simply Love, described on the site as the most popular visual theme, pre-installed and already updated to use the new features. You can play with either a dance pad or your keyboard.

Notable features listed on the site include:

  • Built-in networking — make network requests from inside the game, with full online leaderboard support via GrooveStats.
  • Unlock downloading — automatically download and unzip unlocks for events (ITL and Stamina RPG) from within the game, and reload them from the song wheel.
  • Backwards compatibility — use your favorite StepMania 5 theme with ITGmania.
  • Security fixes — the site states many vulnerabilities found in mainline StepMania have been fixed.
  • Other conveniences — fast profile switching, player-specific visual delay, per-player window disabling, and both rate mod types.
