    Yes that’s what I would like to see. No, that’s not silly. It would make it easier to browse the library and launch them without a mouse, which requires a desk.

      it doesn’t make any sense to have a centralized distributor acting as a middleman. The current implementation requires bringing your own game files either manually or via a steam connection. There’s only two games, the minecraft clone mentioned is just a web browser game and not actually minecraft.

      Since most browser games simply “just work” when you go to the website i’d just create a profile launcher firefox link, and then in that profile build out each game you want as one of your homepage links, which would just be a grid of bookmarks basically. It’s entirely overkill for exactly two games imo, and if you’re on a desktop that can run these games you’re better off running them natively.

      If you’re on mobile you’re currently SOL it looks.

        Nobody is talking about a centralized distributor. We’re talking about an app. A frontend.
