This update fixes several annoyances with the new game detection and confirmation flow. The notification is much faster now, folders with PascalCase names are recognized correctly, and the UI gives better feedback when you confirm a match.

"New games detected" notification is now instant

Previously, clicking the notification would re-sync ALL unrecognized games in your library, which could take minutes if you had many old folders. Now it only processes the freshly discovered games — much faster and no duplicate sync requests.

PascalCase folder names now work

Folders like "TheBigStepSeason2-0.1-pc" were not recognized as version candidates for "The Big Step" because the app didn't split PascalCase words. Fixed — folder name matching is now smarter.

Empty badge no longer appears after confirmations

After confirming a new game or version match, an empty label would briefly appear in the top-left corner of the game banner. Now it only shows when there's actually something to display (Completed, Abandoned, etc).

Confirmed games are now auto-selected and scrolled into view

When you confirm a game match or version match, the app now automatically selects that game and scrolls it into view — no need to search for it in the list.

Folder name variants are now saved to community DB

When you confirm a version match (e.g. a game installed under a different folder name), that folder name variant is now properly saved and contributed to the community database so future users benefit from it.

Full changelog on the releases page.

Patch release fixing several bugs from v0.3.3, including one that prevented the app from launching at all on a fresh install. If you tried v0.3.3 and it didn't work — please download v0.3.4.

App crashed on launch

All fresh installs of v0.3.3 crashed immediately with a JavaScript error. The installer was missing required files due to a build configuration mistake. Fixed.

F95Zone login had no effect

Logging in through the app appeared to work but the session was never saved — cookies were being written to a read-only location inside the app package and discarded on restart. Now saved correctly to your user data folder.

Silent failures when fetching game info

Pasting an F95Zone link for an unrecognized game, clicking "Check for updates", or confirming a game match — all of these would fail silently if something went wrong (not logged in, network error, deleted thread). Now a clear error message appears at the bottom of the screen.

Folder name variants not reaching the community DB

When a user had a game installed under a different folder name than what's in the database, that name variant was recognized locally but never contributed back. It now gets merged into the community DB so future users benefit from it.

v0.2.4 — UI Overhaul & Sync Improvements                                                                                                                                                              

  This update brings a major visual redesign and a bunch of quality-of-life improvements.                                                                                          What's new:

  - Steam-style UI redesign — full-width banners with vignette effect, frosted glass content panels

  - F95Zone login built into the app — no more manual setup, login status shown in the header

  - Grouped sidebar — games grouped by folder with collapsible sections

  - Live sync updates — banners and metadata load per-game as sync progresses, no waiting for full sync to finish

  - Cancel sync — stop sync at any time, progress already made is saved

  - Fixed wrong game matching for several titles (FamilyChemistry, AGirlOnATrain, Kidnap)

  - Better banner quality — now fetches full-size images instead of thumbnails

  - Subfolders — parent folder now inherits game data from subfolder caches

Hey everyone!

Here’s a quick look at what’s coming soon to our visual novel library manager. These are the next confirmed features I’m actively working on for versions 0.2.3 – 0.2.5.

🔧 In Progress / Coming Next:

  • Switch between game folders
    Manage multiple game directories from one place. Especially helpful if you separate installed, in-progress, or completed games.

  • Latest release date label
    The latest known release date will be shown right on the banner (top-right corner), so you can instantly see how fresh the game is.

  • Highlight recently updated games
    Games with a new release within the last weeks will be marked in the list — helping you spot what's new at a glance.

🎯 I’m prioritizing these based on usefulness and your feedback so far. If you have suggestions, feel free to drop them in the comments or Discord.

Thanks for your support,
— Hidden Folder Games
