Customer view: browse Apps, LAN Games, and Online Games, then launch with one click.

Looking for 3 beta testers

Each tester gets 10 free lifetime licenses. I haven't set a final price yet, but I plan to keep it very cheap. I built this because other game menus on the market cost too much. Official pricing will be announced soon.

What is it?

A lightweight Windows game menu for PC cafés, LAN shops, and gaming stations. Customers browse Apps, LAN Games, and Online Games in a branded glass UI, then launch local .exe files directly.

Fully customizable admin

Password-protected Admin lets you brand every station: logo, banner, titles, wallpaper, categories, launcher tiles, install paths, and more. One shared game list can still work when PCs use different drive letters.

  • Banner and brand lines
  • Appearance and sidebar hero
  • Install paths per PC
  • Categories, launcher items, latency targets
  • License and security settings

Key features

Fast on Windows

Built with Tauri v2, Rust, and WebView2 (not Electron), so it stays thin on RAM and CPU.

Highly customizable

Password-protected Admin area to shape the whole experience:

  • Logo, banner, header title and subtitle, wallpaper, and sidebar hero image
  • Custom categories and launcher tiles with icons, sort order, and multi-category tags
  • Tile size scaling and per-PC install paths, so one shared game list still works when stations use different drive letters
  • Live config refresh across stations from a shared config.json
  • Built-in image cropper for cover art and branding

Random game selection

Toggle “Randomize launcher order on each app launch.” Every open shuffles the tiles so stations don't all show the same games on top, and players discover more of your library.

Portable and network-share ready

Drop the app folder on a network drive (D:\, V:\, or a game server share). Clients run the .exe with no complicated install.

Built-in latency tracker

Live ping graphs for ICMP and TCP, so staff can spot internet issues quickly.

Quick web shortcuts

Instant access to sites like Facebook, TikTok, YouTube, and Google.

Configuration backup

Easy backup for safer recovery if something goes wrong.

Version history

Major features and fixes as we ship them. Current build: v0.1.7.

v0.1.7

  • Arcade launcher sounds — character-select style hover blip and confirm click when browsing and launching games.
  • Seamless sidebar hero loop — hero video restarts without flashing the still fallback at the loop point.
  • Header version badge — live build version shown under the powered-by credit.

v0.1.6

  • Close after launch — optional admin setting shows a launch overlay, then quits the menu so games get more free RAM (off by default).
  • Performance toggles — turn off sidebar video, ambient animations, or glass blur on low-spec café PCs.
  • Harder free trial — 5-day trial still applies, but deleting local files no longer easily resets the clock (dual-store + integrity checks).

v0.1.5

  • Frameless window — custom theme-colored minimize / maximize / close controls; drag the banner to move the window.
  • Launch focus fix — menu comes to the front on open instead of staying behind other apps.
  • License admin tools — online key binding, phone-friendly issuer, recent licenses with copy / select / revoke flows.

v0.1.4

  • Faster cold start — self-hosted fonts (no Google Fonts wait) and async network probes to cut the white-screen delay.
  • Header layout — banner uses one-fourth of the app height; sidebar hero centered at the bottom.
  • Configurable sidebar hero — use the animated Sven default or your own still image.

v0.1.3

  • Licensing — free trial with launch lock when expired; signed license keys and machine binding.
  • Randomize launcher order — optional shuffle on each open so stations don’t all show the same games on top.
  • Admin drag-and-drop — reorder launcher items; modal create/edit for tiles.

v0.1.2

  • Per-PC install paths — one shared game list across stations with different drive letters.
  • Custom branding — logo upload, edge-to-edge banner, glass UI, latency tracker, and quick web shortcuts.
  • Portable deploy — run from a network share with live config refresh.
