How to install Hexalate on Ubuntu 17.04
Hexalate is a Linux color matching game. The goal of the game is to rotate and position the circles, so that each touching line matches in color. The rotation of the circles can be perfomed by right clicking and the circles can be moved by dragging them. This tutorial explains the installation procedure of Hexalate on Ubuntu 17.04.
