Thusfar

What Thusfar is

Thusfar is a Windows tray app that saves short, self-written recaps of gaming sessions to help players remember where they left off. It detects Steam game sessions automatically by reading the local Steam library and watching for game exits. After a session longer than 10 minutes, its prompt lets players skip, write one line, or answer three questions about where they were, what came next, and what to remember. Sessions shorter than 10 minutes are recorded without a capture prompt. A game library and per-game recap view bring notes together with playtime, last-played information, and session history. Steam games are tracked automatically; console, emulator, and other non-Steam sessions can be logged manually. Data is stored locally in SQLite. Optional IGDB cover art requires free Twitch developer credentials; without setup, placeholder art is used and the app remains functional. The free, MIT-licensed release is a ZIP archive to unzip and run, not an installer. It requires Windows 10 or 11 x64 and Microsoft Edge WebView2 Runtime, and the unsigned release may trigger a Windows SmartScreen prompt.
