Hey! Figured I haven’t posted this on Lemmy before so should be OK to share here in case anyone else finds this cool/interesting.

This is a rofi plugin for launching your games, simple as that. I built it both because I think it looks cool and to make launching the game I know I want to play faster (no need to navigate the dreaded Steam UI). It parses games from several sources, such as Steam, Heroic Games Launcher, Lutris and Bottles, as well as some modded Minecraft instances (check out the readme for instructions).

The repo can be found here, and there’s an AUR package available for Arch users.

Let me know what you think! I haven’t built all that much but this my favourite tool that I’ve created (I am addicted to games).

    Looks good. Now I can view all the games I won’t ever play in a beautiful menu! /s

    For real though, looks good. 🙂

      Ty 🙏 I find I usually know what game I actually want to play, and just typing in that name to filter for it lets me mostly ignore other games and not feel bad for avoiding them lol
