ACCOUNTS

I implemented a simple backend in Supabase. You can now register, login and change your profile picture. Some overview and social features will appear in a further release.

THIS IS EXTREMELY EXPERIMENTAL! Expect bugs, getting disconnected, desynced and whatnot, feel free to create issues. There is no account recovery options right now. I reserve the right to delete accounts, profile pictures, etc. at my discretion at least until this system is stable. You have been warned.

Other notable changes:

• You can now freely navigate the launcher after launching a game, it will still track and update your play time and will prevent you from launching another game.
• Play time display rounds things correctly and correctly compares your play time to many different events (fluff lol).
• Neko Launcher now logs things to timestamped files. Feel free to attach these to issues if you encounter problems.
• Bugfixes.

Neko Launcher Neo v0.1.0-alpha

Initial release for testing.
