## Many new users - Thanks!
|

We are in our small team very are humble and happy for the recent uptick of RetroDECK users.

## Cooperation between projects: Vita3K
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Parts of the RetroDECK team have been talking to the Vita3K team about hotkey improvements and giving advice (and memes) about building a flatpak.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
We are hopeful that these discussions leads to improvements for both projects (and maybe a flatpak version of Vita3K in the future).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Cooperation between projects: BoilR
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Another person we have been in contact with recently is the developer of BoilR as we working on integrating it into RetroDECK for the "Add RetroDECK games as separate entries in Steam".
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
A new release of BoilR will be made with our recommended additions that will also benefit those that just use the BoilR application. But we will let the BoilR developer unveil those features.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Status Update: Games as separate entries in Steam
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This function already works in our Beta testing. There are some minor fixes left but it works as intended thanks to the above cooperation.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This first version of the function is simple but also quite elegant:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
**In the Configurator:**
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
**Configure Steam GridDB**
|
||
|
|
- Put in your SteamGridDB API Key from your account.
|
||
|
|
- Checkbox if you want to use NSFW and/or Animated Art.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
**Do the thing**
|
||
|
|
- You press the "Sync Favorites" button.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
All games you have marked as favorites in ES-DE interface are then synced, scraped and added to Steam as separate games.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
As the RetroDECK Controller Profile is a global profile you will need to reselect it for each entry (as they are counted as a new game in Steam).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
We hope to develop this function more in the future but this will be the first iteration of it.
|
||
|
