Download

Installation

• Download the build 2025.10.07 from the Releases
• Extract the ZIP file to a folder that does not require admin privileges to run the application. (The application will create folder and files in the same directory as the executable file so it must have write permissions, otherwise it will fail to launch the dummy game, in which case, you can try running the application as administrator.)
• You can safely delete the older files if you have the previous version installed and start fresh with the new version.

Updates

• Update build for Perplexity quest (Comet). The application name is called "Comet

---

This update also include a few improvements and changes on the dummy-exe.

Main application

• Game list is now being fetched dynamically (Dynamically load gameslist.json #8).
  This means that newly added games will be available without me having to rebuild and update the application unless there are new changes in the main application.

• The game list is fetched when the app starts.
  It fetches data from the Gamelist JSON file hosted on this repository's GitHub Pages.
  If it fails, it will try to fetch directly from Discord's servers, and lastly, it will use the bundled game list that comes with the application.

• The gamelist hosted on the repository's GitHub Pages is automatically updated daily at midnight UTC.

• One of the reasons it will not fetch directly from Discord's servers is to avoid Discord from associating end-users' requesting IP addresses with the Detectable API being accessed outside of the Discord client/website.
  (This is just a precaution — I am not sure if Discord actually does this or not 😄. Of course, they have to log requests, and if they notice frequent abnormal access on endpoints, it's a problem they may need to take action on.)

• Improved searching of games.
  By utilizing Fuse.js, searching for games is now more natural compared to the previous method of filtering the game list.
  Certain keywords to look for games using their common abbreviations or acronyms are not entirely possible because we depend on the game list obtained from Discord's detectable endpoint, which mostly contains the full title of the game. (As of writing, around 1,000 out of estimated 10,000 items in the game list from Discord have aliases)

• Search prioritization:

  • Game Title
  • Aliases
  • Executable name

Dummy executable

• The dummy-exe will not show itself as a normal window (Add option like "I want to see the running exe/game" instead of making it run in background #6).
  One of the reasons is to ensure the dummy-exe can be closed when the main application is closed unintentionally.

  • The dummy-exe can still be hidden or minimized to the system tray by right-clicking the tray icon.
    Three options are available: "Show", "Hide", and "Quit".
    However, after implementing this change, the size of the dummy-exe increased from 100 KB to 257 KB.

  • When "Hide" is clicked, the dummy-exe will be hidden from the taskbar and only shown in the system tray.
    (Discord should still be able to detect the application. Otherwise, use "Show" to make it visible again.)

Other notes

• Icon change. The application uses Tauri's default icon so it must be changed to the new icon.
• Added a Log view on "Playground" view. This can be useful if there some errors that occur when fetching the game list or launching a game.
• The "Settings" page is intentionally left blank.
