I've always wanted something like that, very cool!
Any plans to incorporate customizable cloud saves? I'm envisioning listing files and registry keys, maybe fetch a starting point off PCGW to give users an idea of what to expect and whatnot.
Linux client support would be great too, the Steam Deck could make great use of this.

I love the idea. I think the UI can use improvement.
on crack of rock please. is.. is that enough?
Someone correct me if I'm wrong since I'm not familiar with all this, but would I be able to "upload and share" a game that I bought from GoG since GoG games are DRM free?
Yes. Just keep in mind that will likely break licensing for virtually any game you’ve legally purchased.
This seems cool, but damn I wish there was something like this for Steam games or something. That's the biggest thing I miss from Sony's ecosystem, and Steam's "Family Share" is pretty bad in comparison.
A product's name should reflect what it does, not what you were smoking when you came up with the idea.
Oh dear...
First that name. Oh my word. Just no.
Second, pretty much directly encouraging piracy. Just... That's also a hard no.
Sorry, while the technological concept is interesting for games that don't have a restrictive license, between a lack of forethought regarding the name and the outright condonment of piracy, I'm gonna have to stay away. If these issues are readdressed in the future, it my be worth re-examining
