Game Glance 3.1.1

game-glance-3.1.1-open-transition.mp4

A new way to open a game from Home, and a steadier Home. Coming from 3.0.x, update from Quick Access → Game Glance →
Updates.

  • A new open transition (#11). Opening a game from Spotlight Home no longer scales up the wide card. The hero art
    stays where it is, and Home's own title or logo, Play row, buttons and info chips move to their places on the game
    page. The description and the HowLongToBeat card fade in as it opens, so the page is complete the moment it takes
    over. Both page looks (Spotlight and Clean) have their own version.
  • Back to Home at once. B on a game page brings Home back with its art and colour already there: no dark flash, and
    no glimpse of the first game's art.
  • Faster cycling. Pressing L1/R1 or the d-pad quickly, or holding them, keeps the screen steady: the selection
    moves along the cards, and the art, colour and wide card follow once you stop. A held d-pad or stick steps at the same
    pace as a held bumper.
  • Large custom art. SteamGridDB heroes, logos and card art far bigger than the screen are drawn from smaller copies,
    so switching games no longer freezes on them. A very large custom logo no longer makes Home stutter as it opens or as
    you reach that game (#31, thanks to @germydan for the report and video).
  • Ready ahead. Home loads the art, descriptions and HowLongToBeat numbers of the games in its row in the background,
    so cards widen and games open with everything in place.
  • Play from. A game installed on more than one device shows Steam's "Play from" arrow on Home's Play pill, as on the
    game page.
  • Shading. Home shades the art the way the game page does, with Steam's shadow at the top.
  • Unifideck games. The cloud, the Play word and the game's size show as on Unifideck's own page, on Home and during
    the open.
  • SteamGridDB. After you change a game's art with SteamGridDB, Home's accent colour follows the new art instead of
    keeping the old one (#32).
  • Smaller fixes. A blank logo file shows the game's name instead. The game page's Spotlight cards have one height.
    Numbers follow your language's format. The cloud button also shows for games Steam's store has no details for.
    After an update, new games are pre-loaded after 15 seconds instead of a minute.

Thanks to everyone who tried the 3.1 pre-releases.
