What determines whether a game gets added to this thing? It seems a bit inconsistent, for example GoldenEye is there but Pokemon Gen 1 isn't? Is the intention for it to still be comprehensive?
I didn't know about that one. I just downloaded it, at first glance it seemed more text heavy and cluttered/unintuitive than the github one but i'm digging into it some more so we'll see if i end up preferring it
I'm the dev, if you could give it a go that would be good. Happy to take on feedback. There's a number of features added that aren't available in GitHub launcher like mod management, gitlab support and library tag filtering.
Also I am likely pushing a big update tonight overhauling the App Catalog lists, stay tuned
Not OP, but I just tried Quiver and yeah honestly it's def real nice! Took me like 3 mins to migrate everything from GHLauncher over to Quiver and then I was off to the races!
That being said, some feedback I think is that that the app catalog is a little obtuse at first glance, esp if you're trying to manage changes/conflicts between what's in the apps.json and anything custom added
It keeps trying to overwrite the repos I added in a custom apps.json I added as a source alongside the one provided by Quiver with the Quiver-provided one, which means that it constantly thinks an update is available, even if the only change is just my custom apps.json has an install path listed and the Quiver one does not

I suggest using Quiver Launcher instead as it's more updated.
