Hi! I’ve been using SSGL (https://github.com/FreaKzero/ssgl-doom-launcher), a stylish and easy-to-use Doom launcher. But it hasn’t been updated in 5+ years. No PRs merged, very outdated Electron/React version, and a few annoying bugs.
I’d love to give SSGL a second life and I’m looking for people who might want to build it together: developers, designers, Doom mod fans - anyone who likes the concept and wants to help shape a modern, polished launcher for the classic Doom community.
- Fix the current bugs
- Update the tech stack (SSGL still runs on React 16 + old Electron)
- Add mod/game package sharing (e.g. zip up a full setup (WADs, ports, configs) to run on another machine)
- Maybe add SteamOS support to make a launcher be a replacement for outdated GZDeck
- Refresh the UI (cleaner layout, better usability)
