Elevate - a Game Launcher for GPDWIN

Hey /u/darksoulflame

Thanks for offering to help test this prototype.

As I mentioned in the reddit post, make sure to keep your expectations low for now. This app is not ready to replace your current launcher(s).. yet. And aesthetically.. its not up to my design standards.

However, here is a quick list of things you should be able to do out of the box: * Download, unzip, scan & catalog a sample pack of homebrew games for testing * Swap between a faux Nintendo switch & a PSP layout (just for fun) * Fullscreen toggle * Drag and drop a ROM to the app to add your own game * Download Retroarch * Download Retroarch Cores: * SNES * N64 * NES * Genesis * GBA * PSP * PS1

I've placed some temporary buttons at the top to access the downloads. I'm using Retroarch first, since it helps me get a prototype out there faster.

I've also sent along a couple of quick wireframes of the landing page, and library interaction (search/filter/etc) just to help everyone get a sense of where i'm heading with this. ..to be honest the landing page feels a little like the Nintendo switch, which isn't inherently bad, but I'm still thinking the interactions through.

Not sure what the cadence of upcoming releases will be but I'm hoping to shoot for weekly or bi-weekly. Depends on client work, (still gotta pay the bills!)

Anyway, thanks again. Looking forward to hearing your feedback/suggestions/requests!
