Disclaimer:
This software is currently under development and is in an alpha state.
I am not a professional software engineer nor do i claim to be.
I do my best to ensure that this software is safe to install and use before release.
This software its self does not send any user data to myself or any third party when used
as a game launcher. However if you install a game that requires download from steam,
steamcmd will require you to provide your steam user credentials. I nor this software are associated
with Steam or Fun Pimps.
By Downloading and or installing this software you do so at your won risk and agree not to hold me responsible
for any damage or loss of data.
Now that that's done on to the fun stuff
