Building PlusOnePlay: what to play next

About

Recent computer engineering graduate and solo maker of PlusOnePlay. I built it after spending too many scarce game nights choosing from a growing backlog instead of playing.

Why I built a recommender that gives you one answer, not ten

Most recommendation products optimize for discovery: more options, longer lists, another feed. That works when the goal is shopping. It is less useful when the problem is deciding what to play tonight.

I kept reaching the same dead end with my own Steam backlog. A list of ten perfect matches was still ten decisions, and context mattered: two free hours is different from a whole weekend; wanting comfort is different from wanting something unfamiliar.

So PlusOnePlay takes the opposite approach:

starts with games you already own

PlusOnePlay - Stop deciding. Start playing.

Turn your Steam backlog into one answer for tonight. PlusOnePlay ranks games you already own around your taste, mood, and available time—then explains the pick and launches it in Steam.
