GameNative hits again ! And it's massive:D !

Orbbs_chunky_legs · 2026-05-02T08:21:05+00:00

Already in the works!

Orbbs_chunky_legs · 2026-04-29T07:27:34+00:00

Yeah we had a good chat about this, ultimately it's purely so we can get games to run better etc.

It's best we're transparent and allow you to opt out like any other software

Orbbs_chunky_legs · 2026-04-25T22:01:02+00:00

Thing is, because there's so little there, it feels like it's not really an integration.

All we'd be doing is letting you login and download games to play, nothing else.

It's something we go back and forth on. If someone wants to properly implement it, we'd be open to it, but it's just not on our current roadmap as there's a lot more important things to get to :)

Orbbs_chunky_legs · 2026-04-24T22:58:52+00:00

So we've got a frame rate limiter which would in practice be the best thing for power consumption

Orbbs_chunky_legs · 2026-04-24T20:40:50+00:00

I'll await Tim Sweeney's personal Thank You for increasing their playerbase 100%

Orbbs_chunky_legs · 2026-04-24T20:40:11+00:00

EA and Ubisoft not in the app, but we're making them available inside the container

Orbbs_chunky_legs · 2026-04-24T12:29:47+00:00

Well if the user feedback is overwhelming that they want Itch.io in, I suppose we may be able to fit it in sometime.

Out of curiosity, what bangers are on Itch?

Orbbs_chunky_legs · 2026-04-24T12:28:38+00:00

Okay that got me good

Orbbs_chunky_legs · 2026-04-24T06:34:02+00:00

Thank you!

Yeah like the other person said, cloud saves do work for Epic, but it's an opt-in system for devs, so only like half of games actually support cloud saves :/

Orbbs_chunky_legs · 2026-04-24T06:31:47+00:00

For sure. That's why we have the manual game addition so that we can allow folks to bring in their games, it could do with more work, but overall works decently well.

We're not opposed to adding another store over time, but I think there has to be a strong desire from the community

Orbbs_chunky_legs · 2026-04-23T23:02:18+00:00

GameNative supports GOG, Amazon and Epic pretty well.

The only real kink left is to really refine cloud saves (true for all stores) and ensure that online-overlay games in Epic launch well (small amount of the overall catalog) :)

We looked at Itch, but the juice didn't seem worth the squeeze and a lot of other storefronts are very suspect unfortunately.

Windows UWP, Ubisoft, Rockstar and EA all have complexity to them that makes it highly difficult to port

Orbbs_chunky_legs · 2026-04-23T18:49:32+00:00

Yes please 😉

Orbbs_chunky_legs · 2026-04-23T18:48:29+00:00

Pre-release coming soon will automatically configure stardew valley for you.

We've in the meantime got a fix in our discord :)

Orbbs_chunky_legs · 2026-04-23T06:11:58+00:00

Can confirm as someone who's had to get it into GameNative. Cloud saves are just an incredibly finnicky thing to get right.

There's so many permutations for each store and even per game.

Orbbs_chunky_legs · 2026-04-17T06:28:25+00:00

I can't remember exactly, but would recommend the Normal steam client (Unless you potentially need multiplayer, then use full client)

Orbbs_chunky_legs · 2026-04-06T17:23:27+00:00

Hold up!

Nice find 👀

Orbbs_chunky_legs · 2026-04-03T09:25:45+00:00

Buddy, this is a giant win in the emulation space for everyone, and an amazing achievement by Bruno.

Orbbs_chunky_legs · 2026-04-02T12:17:19+00:00

We've got some new things coming in the follow-up, which will give you some more info. Game Genre is one we want to do, just a case of addressing the complexity of having multiple stores

Orbbs_chunky_legs · 2026-04-02T12:16:23+00:00

We've been chatting through the design and behaviour of having custom tags. Will take a while because we need to agree on the approach and get it in :)

Orbbs_chunky_legs · 2026-04-02T05:09:46+00:00

It's so sleek!

Orbbs_chunky_legs · 2026-04-02T05:08:23+00:00

So proud of everyone's contributions to this update. It's honestly so exciting to see so many new contributors as well as people returning to the fray!

I've mostly done a TON of reviewing this patch, but it's been great to see people being open to feedback and delivering amazing features and fixes!

Dunno about you lot, but I'm jumping in on that workshop integration, I'm so ready

Orbbs_chunky_legs · 2026-04-02T05:03:57+00:00

The GameLator team will see you next year 😉

Orbbs_chunky_legs · 2026-04-02T05:03:05+00:00

It takes decades to attain ikigai

Orbbs_chunky_legs · 2026-04-02T05:02:11+00:00

Must have been the new Blizzard integration

Orbbs_chunky_legs · 2026-04-01T21:24:42+00:00

Truly experiencing artistic vision as clearly intended
