How does this compare to RAWG (https://rawg.io)? The idea sounds very similar, is it possible to auto-sync PS4/Xbox/PC games, to get intelligent suggestions based on your game library, or to edit/add games as a community?

@iamsebj I have not used RAWG much myself, but at a first glance I can understand they seem very similar. I had some people test it and received complaints about the complexity and user experience. However, I can understand that comes down to personal preference. To answer your other questions: as of now that is not available, sorry - but I have it on my to-do list. When it happens is another story, as Gamelib currently is just a side-project I work on when I have spare time.

+ Gorgeous design + Great user experience + Extensive Features --- = Great Product Couldn't find any negatives yet. The developers seem to have planned a lot more for the future, which is also a major plus. Many alternatives feel mature but abandoned, without much innovation recently. This is by far one of the best Letterboxd alternatives for games. The developer(s) are very friendly and active on Discord and seem to know the target audience.

How is this different from Galaxy 2.0 on GoG, when it´s coming out? No offence, but feels similar.

@spcvrtx Thanks for your question. Haven't looked much into Galaxy 2.0, but it seems like they are aiming towards a one-launcher app for all your games, no matter the platform. As to my understanding, there's no way to rate and review games on there, which is a feature many of our members have given us positive feedback on. It also looks like Galaxy 2.0 has been in the works for a lot longer than Gamelib, and it has a whole team behind it. Gamelib is currently only a side project that I'm working on. However, doesn't hurt to give Gamelib a try, and remember you can always erase all your data in one-click if you don't feel at home on Gamelib. Hope that answered your question. :)
