GameVault is an innovative gaming platform that offers a self-hosted, source-available alternative to popular gaming services. Imagine having your own personal gaming hub, where you and your friends can enjoy DRM-free games stored on your file server, all organized seamlessly. It’s like having your personal Steam or Plex server, but specifically tailored for your video game collection—and without any streaming involved. With GameVault, you can play your favorite games from anywhere. Here’s how it works: - Organize Your Games: Simply place your game files (installers, binaries, etc.) into a designated folder. - Automated Enrichment: GameVault detects these files, enriches them with metadata, and provides a user-friendly interface for easy management. - Download, Install, and Play: Use the platform to download, install, and play your games hassle-free. - Track Your Progress: GameVault even keeps tabs on your playtimes and progress. GameVault Components: - Self-Hosted Backend Server: Served via Docker, this backend handles the heavy lifting. - Client Application: This is the interface you’ll use to interact with the server. Getting Started: Visit our homepage at GameVault for all the details. Who Can Benefit from GameVault? - 🎮 DRM-Free Gamers: Enjoy your games from anywhere. - 🏠 Self-Hosters: Keep your game collection on your own server. - 📚 Game Collectors: Organize and cherish your growing library. - 💾 Data Hoarders: Archive every gigabyte of gaming history. - 👾 Indie Gamers: Keep track of your independent gems. - 🕹️ Retro Gamers: Relive the golden era of gaming. - 🛠️ Game Developers: Test and distribute your creations. - 👪 Friends & Family: Share the joy of gaming with loved ones. What GameVault Isn’t: - A Game Pirating Application - A Game Streaming Service (e.g., Geforce NOW, Sunshine) - A Game Server Management Tool (e.g., Pterodactyl) - A Local Game Library Merger (e.g., Playnite, Heroic, Launchbox)—although it shares similarities. Game on, and may your adventures be epic! 🎮✨
