GamePilot — a smart library that helps you decide what to play

GamePilot isn’t trying to replace your launchers. It’s here for the moment before you play — when you’re staring at your library thinking, “I don’t know what I’m in the mood for.”

This first release is a small, local‑first app that suggests games based on your mood, genre preferences, and how much time you have. It’s simple, a little rough around the edges, but already surprisingly helpful.

What GamePilot does right now

• Suggests games based on mood Feeling chill? Energetic? Want something story‑heavy? GamePilot filters your library to match the vibe.
• Understands your time window Only have 20 minutes? Or a whole evening? It adjusts recommendations accordingly.
• Sorts by genre and feel A lightweight way to rediscover games you forgot you owned.
• Local-first and private Everything stays on your machine. No accounts, no cloud, no tracking.
• Simple, clean interface A small, focused tool designed to help you choose faster.

Why this exists

Choosing a game is often harder than playing one. Most launchers show you everything at once, which can be overwhelming. GamePilot gives you a gentle nudge toward something that fits your current mood, not just your library size.

This release is intentionally minimal — the goal is to see how people use it, what feels good, and what needs improving.

What’s rough or missing (honest early‑access notes)

• Launching games works, but isn’t instant or deeply optimised yet.
• The UI is simple and will evolve with feedback.
• Mood categories are early and will get smarter over time.
• Some libraries may need manual refreshes or tweaks.

This is a first version, not a polished final product — and that’s the point.

Planned improvements

• Smarter mood detection and better suggestions
• Faster, more reliable launching
• More platforms supported
• Custom moods and personalised filters
• Better UI flow and animations
• Optional “surprise me” mode
