One Windows app to find games, talk, buy and get back into a game after a crash.
Players needed one Windows app to find games, talk, buy items and get back into a game after a crash, on PCs from Windows 7 to 11.
A desktop app (Electron) with chat channels, matchmaking, team voice chat with an in-game overlay, a built-in shop, crash recovery, signed auto-update and 6+ languages. A small Go starter installs each new version and falls back to the working one.
Used daily by the platform's players, with 14+ public releases of the app, and one update cut its network traffic by about 97%.
