im looking at creating a Desktop Game tracker app for myself as a person project wondering if you would like to be kept up to date with releases.

What does it do?
: Track Hours played On All games added to the App.
: insert Starting hours [if to move from steam/origin to this
: You insert Price paid
: It works out Price per hour of entertainment
: light-weight design
: allows you to track any app not just Games,
: Easy copy & paste of Data to HTML/Forum

Why not just use Steam/Origin Hours played?
: this app just allows one list to rule them all.
: Allows you to track games not linked to platforms

Voted. I think this would be very useful if kept light weight.

Interesting idea, not entirely sure I'm ready to see how much time I'm sinking into things but there you go

Personally not that bothered with the whole hours played thing - I've always wondered why Steam doesn't register the price you actually paid for the game in their API, so you get an inaccurate price per hour value unless you paid full price (but who does that these days

) - but other than seeing that I can't see any reason why I'd track it myself in a separate app.

In saying that - Some people love tracking their stuff, so I'm sure you could find some people using it - For me, it would have to be really automated
