CuSteam - Customisable Overlay Homepage!

[Jeeva]

Hey guys - me and a friend have written a new homepage for the overlay, which allows you to add links (along with automatic removable links to stuff like Wikia, PCGamingWiki, etc) which are then shown based on the game you're currently playing.

It's available now as an early release (Early Access? ;)), and we're looking for feedback on what people like about it (or don't like), and what they'd like to see from it.

What do you think?

Funny, i've had this idea in head for a long time and when i finally got myself into it (after having it almost done) i've found out, that in the meantime, you guys, have made something very similiar. Anyway my "web app" works a bit differently - or maybe better said "it has different goals". ( overlayhomepage.com - currently ver 0.41 :P)

Ha! Very nice - great minds think alike and all that. I'm trying to work out where the persistance is - I assume "generating" is slang for "getting data from DB based on the key in URL"?.

What are your goals, out of curiosity? We've recently added a few new features including notepads for games, and a much faster population of the mygames page, with an eye towards further customisation including custom searches (I love your on-page editing by the way, very neat).

I'd leave a review as to how i like both of your overlays, but i can't login to custeam.io to make one, and on overlayhomepage.com, i can't save my changes

We had an issue with the Steam OpenID that's now been resolved. You should be able to login again now.

I’d suggest checking out this guide on website overlays to get ideas on how to make the most of the design and functionality of your overlay. It covers what overlays are, why they’re effective, and tips on customization that could be useful for future updates to CuSteam: https://claspo.io/blog/website-overlays-a-what-why-and-how-guide-with-illustrations/.

Best of luck with the early access, and looking forward to seeing where CuSteam goes!

This thread was quite old before the recent post, so we're locking it to prevent confusion.
