Jam Reviewer App

Browse a jam! Pick some games! Spin the wheel! Stream your experience!

A companion tool for an itch jam streamer.

Binaries are unavailable currently - there's currently a bug preventing jam refresh and is suspected to corrupt save data. Will post the binary again once the bug is fixed.

NOTE: This app is not affiliated with itch and is developed by a third party developer. The app functions similar to how a browser makes requests to itch. However this doesn't make the app safe for work. I (the developer) have no responsibility for your usage of the tool or the consequences. This is an unofficial app that makes requests to itch.io servers for jam data. There is ALWAYS a possibility that the usage of this tool may result in a ban.

Current functionality includes:

• Downloading & refreshing itch jam from a link
• Downloading & refreshing game covers
• Quick filtering game search & filtering
• Global filtering
• Picking games for stream & review
• 2 randomizers for picking the games for review
• Manual picking of games for review
• Configurable scoring system
• Configurable stream overlay
• Exports results in a PNG
  

Planned functionality not currently included:

• A total of 5 ways to review the game
• 4 randomizers
• Manual jam mode (without an itch link or data)
• Itch entries mode (without an itch link)
• In-app tutorial & FAQ

This app DOES NOT:

• Download games for you
  • Itch does not provide a convenient API to fetch data
  • Currently in order to download jam info this tool has to download the jam page, parse it and extract a link to data
  • Same would have to be done to actual game pages, which would take quite some time.
  • This functionality may be added in the future, but no promises.
• Post your reviews to the jam page
  • This would require implementing logging in to itch.io
• Have game tags or jams where the game participated in
  • Just like downloading the game - this would require parsing the game page
  • This functionality may be added in the future, but no promises.
    

Please note that this app is currently undergoing extensive testing and may be prone to errors or crashing. Please report any crashes or errors you encounter, this will help a lot.

To linux users: The app has not been tested under linux. While it should be fine - platform-dependent bugs relating exclusively to linux distribution may not be fixed.
