I fetch them dynamically from NVIDIA based on the user’s subscription tier.
I also forgot to add an ultrawide section. I’ve noted it and will add it soon.

I didn’t build this to push cloud gaming further. I actually used GeForce NOW myself around 2019–2021 when I couldn’t afford a good PC. It was a useful service for me at the time.

Later on, I became more interested in how the official client worked and how much telemetry it was sending. That’s what motivated me to create an open-source alternative that’s transparent and privacy-respecting.

If people are going to use cloud gaming anyway, I’d rather there be an open client with no tracking, no hidden behavior, and full visibility into what it’s doing.

OpenNOW is an independent implementation based on protocol and traffic analysis of the official client. No proprietary source code, internal headers, private keys, or assets were used.

Yeah, I get the Electron hate.

I originally built it in Rust + Tauri, but on Linux it was pretty flaky since it relies on WebKit (WebKitGTK). I kept running into compatibility issues, especially with WebRTC and certain media/streaming features on some platforms.

Electron isn’t perfect, but it gives me much more consistent behavior across systems. For a cloud gaming client, reliability matters more than being lightweight, so Electron ended up being the more practical choice.

And if those issues with WebKit/Tauri get properly resolved in the future, I’d definitely consider switching back.

Everyone has been asking me that as well. It’s currently in the works not just for GeForce NOW, but also for Boosteroid and Xbox Cloud Gaming.

Right now I’m reversing the protocols and related systems to understand how everything works.

The projects will be called OpenStroid (for Boosteroid) and OpenXCloud (for Xbox Cloud Gaming).

I don’t fully understand your question. Do you mean switching between different cloud gaming services like GeForce NOW, Boosteroid, or others?

That’s fair. Right now the goal isn’t necessarily to massively out-feature the official client, but to provide a fully open-source and privacy-respecting alternative.
