Download Games
As most common in the casual gaming industry, SGD release their games as shareware where you can download and play the game for a limited amount of time, usually 30 or 60 minutes. After this time the game will lock itself and the player must purchase a license (full version) to continue playing. All games are available for both Microsoft Windows and Mac OS X computers. Some games have also been released for formats such as mobile and Pocket PC.

Online Games
In November 2006 SGD launched an online gaming site called Donut Games. It featured 16 launch games, and new games are added continuously.

iPhone
In April 2009 SGD began releasing games for the Apple iPhone. The games are released under the brand Donut Games, and include both old games converted to the iPhone as well as new games.
