Really cool app. It's always nice to see good tools to play more LD games.

Wow this sounds great, will have a look at it, after a duty shift at the offive after only 3 hours of sleep ;)

good work man, it's cool to see itch games [along with my own] on a desktop client, and the installation process couldn't be simpler [although, I do hope you add html games support in the near future!].

Love this! And love that it works with collections, which is something I never used on itch.io... until now! This will really help a ton with playing Windows entries in jams. Thank you!!!!

Does this work with .rar files ?

This is cool. I've made a special downloadable version of my own entry and added it to itch.io just to test it out. Works great! :)

The app does not support the .rar format at this time, nor is it planned.

If you're looking for a good, modern compression format I recommend .7z instead!

wow this is awesome! I'm not sure why some of my games run some not (although it's awesome that they ran!). Also what if someone is releasing various versions? Well anyways can't wait to see more!

Huh, seems cool. I'm giving this a download, I'll try to get my entry working with it later.

Didn't all this existed, i'm gonna give it a try!

0.9.3 is out, you can alt-click on a game's thumbnails to see a log if your game failed to install/run properly!

Is there a way to change the directory that the games are kept at (specifically on OSX)? I might try trickery with symlinks.

Hi. I'd love "Random LD34 game" collection (working on tag). Maybe actually trending tag or something in general. It is a bit annoying to have tabs open in the browser as it works at present, but I guess this is just an interim thing. Great work though.
