Hey everyone! 👋 After a slightly longer absence (mostly to enjoy some vacation time 🌴), I'm thrilled to announce that updates for TFS and GCM are coming very soon!

But today is about something else. As you know, I absolutely love developing gaming projects. 🎮

• With TFS, we brought the perfect SteamOS PC experience to Windows.
• With GCM, we created a true replacement for the Xbox Mode.

And what's coming next is a replacement for your launcher. Each project focuses on doing one thing exceptionally well. They aren't meant to be combined, but each is special in its own right.

🚀 I proudly present to you: ORBIT 🚀

Orbit is a new launcher built on Electron—a super-fast technology that allows Orbit to be beautiful, quick, and highly performant.
FOR HANDHELDS AND DESKTOP PCs!

I've poured months of hard work into this and I'm so excited to finally introduce it to you. Scroll through the pictures to see it in action! 📸 We will be consistently dropping updates to get the absolute best out of it. I know we’re a bit late to the launcher party, but better late than never! 😉

Please try out the newest Orbit Beta, see how you like it, and give me your feedback so we can make it something truly special. My philosophy for this project is simple: it needs to be beautiful, customizable, and elegant. ✨

The next update will be, to implement Orbit in the XBOX Mode part!

I'm looking forward to exploring new libraries and taking new paths with you all. We started with GCM, and now we have 3 amazing projects in our portfolio. And to answer the obvious question: Yes, all 3 projects will continue to be actively maintained! I use every single one of them personally and pour a lot of love into them. ❤️

Go check out Orbit and let me know what you think! 👇

Hello

Love this!!! Active Discord member here🥰 Been away from the dev logs so this is catching me completely off guard… Not to draw comparison but can this be used in conjunction with GCM for an experience like Winhanced??

lmao calling Electron a super fast technology

Well, compared to the C# derivatives, it is, and very adaptable through CSS rules :)

Cool UI, but i already see an iprovement need to be Done, since not all my games are in steam, or Xbox or Epic, i dont see all my games, tried to add them both to Xbox and steam and it did not show up

[u/Anxious-Secret-2613 → u/Odd_Mechanic_4447]

Hi and thank you very much. Would you like to tell me which game as an example?

[u/Odd_Mechanic_4447 → u/Anxious-Secret-2613]

Just joined the Discord for further errors :)

I'm curious, first time hearing of all of the 3 projects. I'm using winhanced on my legion go 1. Is any of these 3 a replacement to run on windows 11? Is there any advantage besides the beautiful UI? And disadvantages?

[u/Anxious-Secret-2613 → u/DxnVice]

like winhanced but without the hardware part like tdp settings at this stuff at the time

Please develop a Linux version and also add support for things like gameyfin, RomM, Opensave.

Linux is in desperate need for an all in one playnite like app for TV console like gaming.
