  • Activity heatmap and play-time-by-day-of-week charts
  • Session length distribution with mean, median, and p75
  • Per-game pattern view with return-rate and gap analysis

Your year, wrapped — and shareable.

A cinematic year-in-review built right into your library. Top games, genres, mood, hidden gems, and a 1080×1080 poster to drop in any feed.

  • Top-3 podium for your most-played games
  • Genre breakdown, mood tagline, and hidden-gem spotlight
  • Custom date ranges — month, year, or anything between
  • Export shareable poster card straight to clipboard

Stat 03

See what's trending. Catch streamers live.

Twitch is woven through the launcher — pulse badges on game cards, live streams in the sidebar, trending titles you already own, and go-live toasts.

  • Live and offline view of every channel you follow
  • Trending in your library — your games, ranked by viewers
  • Pulse badges on game cards, click to jump straight to a stream

Under the hood

Built for people who care how things work.

A native Rust core wrapped in a React UI. Tiny install, instant launch, and your data on your disk — exactly where it belongs.

> Why it's fast: the core runs as a native Rust binary, not Electron.
> Why it's small: Windows ships WebView2 — Nexus reuses it instead of bundling Chromium.
> Why it's private: no servers, no accounts, no analytics in the desktop app. Your library lives in a single SQLite file you control.
> Why it's open: every release is documented in a public changelog with versioned MSI downloads.

Latest release

v0.4.0

May 9, 2026 Live now

Running games are clearer from the detail screen: the active game now shows a Stop button, live elapsed timer, and process-finder status right where you are looking. Twitch EventSub reconnects are also quieter, so normal server WebSocket closes no longer look like API failures.

  • Stop running games from the detail screen
  • Live elapsed time beside active sessions
  • Quieter Twitch EventSub reconnect logs
