Development on Hotline Connect Client began in late 2024 by [Creator Name]. The primary motivation was the lack of actively maintained, modern clients for the Hotline protocol, especially on platforms like macOS and Linux.
Development on HotStuff! began in 2023 by Theo Knez. The client is built for classic [[macOS]] and supports both FAT (68k/PPC) and CARBON (OS X) binaries. It has seen steady development, with the latest version released on October 13, 2025.
 
The client is built using [C# and .NET MAUI / C++ and Qt / etc.] which allows a single codebase to target multiple operating systems. The first public beta (v0.9.0) was released in April 2025, with the 1.0.0 stable release following in October 2025. The project is [open-source/closed-source] and development is ongoing.
