This doesn’t do anything particularly revolutionary, but it does give you a nice GUI with the ability to assign hotkeys to suspend/resume.
Useful if you want console-like game suspend to quick-switch between games, or if you’re just trying to save on the electricity bill.
EDIT to add: suspended apps stay in RAM/VRAM, so be aware of your specs/game requirements if you’re trying to achieve console-like “game switching”. Also, could be incredibly useful for mobile gamers to save on battery/cool down the device a bit while not playing for a minute or two.
I recently found out that a game I played froze when my pc went into auto suspend. Does this help with it too? Thanks for making this.
I’d love that integrated into Steam Deck.
Not the same as native integration, but there is a decky plugin that does this:

I made a similar thing a couple of years ago, but there is no UI or configurability: https://github.com/wvdschel/pause_process
