I built a fast, free Windows game launcher : it's my Weeegus :3

Hello everyone,
I’m French, so sorry in advance, the rest of this text is translated m(_ _)m

Introducing Weeegus Launcher: a completely free, ultra‑fast game (and app) launcher that does things differently… and honestly, better.

I’ve spent years looking for a launcher that wasn’t a bloated factory of menus, sidebars, integrations, and features nobody uses. I wanted something clean, fast, beautiful, and able to handle any game or app, not just what the big launchers decide to support.

So… I built it myself.

I work in software testing, and I’ve spent my life around tools, UX, and logic. With a mix of stubbornness, late nights, and AI‑assisted development (ChatGPT Plus helping me speed up coding tasks), Weeegus Launcher was born.

The design, the ideas, the structure, the guidelines, and the soul of the app are 100% mine.
AI just helped me turn my vision into something real.

Originally made just for me, my friends went crazy about it and pushed me to share it publicly.

So… here it is.

What makes Weeegus Launcher special

  • 14 Languages
  • 3 Easter Eggs (the fun kind)
  • Instant startup — opens in about half a second
  • Fully customizable — colors, layout, categories
  • Portable — no installation required
  • Auto‑scraping of media — artworks, covers, banners
  • Manual or drag‑and‑drop adding — .exe, shortcuts, .bat, .url
  • No internet required (except for updates)
  • Local detection of Steam, GOG, Heroic, Epic, EA App, etc — no account login needed
  • Add Weeegus games to Steam as “non‑Steam games” with full artworks automatically applied

Weeegus is exactly that.

You can check it out here : ( i take all honest feedback :3 )

itch.io: https://lovemakerz.itch.io/weeegus
GitHub: https://github.com/lovemakerz/Weeegus_Launcher

It’s completely free — no ads, no telemetry, no account, no nonsense.

Thanks for reading.
I hope you’ll enjoy Weeegus Launcher.

Just breathe, live, and play.

Weeegus Launcher : a Game Launcher, Fully (long ) made with ChatGPT.

Hello everyone,
i'm french, and i'm sorry, the rest of this text is translated m(_ _)m

Introducing “Weeegus Launcher” : a completely free, ultra‑fast game (and app) launcher that does things differently… and honestly, better.

I’ve spent years looking for a launcher that wasn’t a bloated factory of menus, sidebars, integrations, and features nobody uses. I wanted something clean, fast, beautiful, and able to handle any game or app, not just what the big launchers decide to support.

So… I built it myself.

I’m not a developer, but I work in software testing and I’ve spent my life around tools, UX, and logic. With a mix of stubbornness, vibe‑coding, and a lot of late nights, Weeegus Launcher was born.
Yes, it’s coded with AI assistance ( fully Vibe Coding with ChatGPT Plus) , but the design, the ideas, the structure,the guideline and the soul of the app is 100% mine.

Originally made just for me, my friends went crazy about it and pushed me to share it publicly.
So… here it is.

What makes Weeegus Launcher special?

  • Most important ! ==> 3 Easter Egg
  • Instant startup, opens in about half a second
  • Fully customizable, colors, layout, categories
  • Portable, no installation required
  • Auto‑scraping of media, artworks, covers, banners
  • Manual or drag‑and‑drop game adding :.exe, shortcuts, .bat, .url

  • Local detection of installed launchers & games Steam, GOG, Heroic, Epic, EA App, etc — no account login needed, everything is detected locally
  • Add Weeegus games to Steam as “non‑Steam games” with full artworks automatically applied

Why I built it

I wanted a launcher that:

  • doesn’t feel like enterprise software
  • doesn’t drown you in settings
  • doesn’t force you into an ecosystem
  • doesn’t take 5 seconds to open
  • doesn’t ignore half your library because it’s “non‑Steam” or “non‑Epic”

Just something simple, fast, beautiful, and flexible.

Weeegus is exactly that.

I hope I’m following this subreddit’s rules. I’m not used to this, and I’m pretty bad at communication xD

Thanks for reading me, i hope you love my Weeegus Launcher.

Just breath, live, and play.
