The idea is excellent!! :+1: :tada:

  • It is a bit disappointing that the program window appears somewhere in the corner of the screen, not in the middle.
  • In the examples it is only .NET version and it is a bit confusing, because the launcher can be used to run all versions.

I also agree with @tomcat. It seems nice by your screenshots and your Idea, but I’d like a Linux version if possible. I don’t have a Windows OS.

Perhaps it would be even better if it could add a

  • GUI to customize the path to the engine.

Thanks @tomcat @Worldy_bear23 for all the feedback, I really appreciate it! Actually I developed it for my own needs (Windows dev environment + multiple Godot versions) and decided to release it to help others with the same needs. I also plan to open source the project. The project is done in C# and Avalonia, so theoretically it could have Linux and Mac versions too. :slight_smile:

Yeah, it’s very useful. No need to have a lot of shortcuts on the desktop. Just one. I’m already using it. Huge thanks for sharing your work! :beers:
