Tyrano-based VN on Linux/SteamOS?
The game is using @electron/asar which isn't anything special.

Hop: 25x faster than unzip and 10x faster than tar at reading individual files
Since Hop doesn't do compression, the most appropriate comparison would be to asar
https://github.com/electron/asar
It's not hard being faster than zip if you are not compressing/uncompressing.

2 software devs: We would love to write the code for your idea! Round #3
We just had a look at Twitch Studio for the first time. We've been using OBS so far. It looks like Twitch Studio is closed source and Twitch doesn't have a way for the community to release plugins for it. Twitch Studio is an Electron app, so I was able to reverse-engineer the source code by using asar, but unfortunately Twitch obfuscated all the code which makes it very hard to understand what's going on. Looks like we'd have to wait until Twitch Studio brings official support for developer plugins... (I hope our analysis is right, please correct us if not.)

Injecting electron apps with Crystal
Asar is a simple extensive archive format, it works like tar that concatenates all files together without compression, while having random access support. ~ https://github.com/electron/asar/blob/master/README.md

Ouch - simple compression and decompression for your terminal
I use for some time Ouch, It's a CLI tool for compressing and decompressing various formats (at this moment .tar, .zip, .gz, .xz, .lzma, .bz, .bz2, .lz4, .sz, .zst). You can compress, decompress or list archive. It's just one binary application, without dependencies and for my usage is very fast. I don't create a lot of archives, I usually unpack them when I download something from the web and so far I'm very happy with ouch. It has a simple command syntax. I use on my machines with Debian musl version from release page and on Arch there are packages in AUR (to build with cargo or binary version).

Is there a tool to handle decompression of multiple formats?
I personally use ouch. It suppirts a bunch of stuff and to quote the readme:
- Painless Compression and Decompression in the Terminal
-
Is there any command-line application that you wish existed but doesn't (or isn't as good as you wished)?
ouch - a command-line app to unify file compression and decompression
- Hop: 25x faster than unzip and 10x faster than tar at reading individual files
- Ouch 0.3.0 released!

Whats your favourite open source Rust project that needs more recognition?
Shameless plug here, my favorite project currently is ouch, nobody knows about it, but I think it might gain some traction when we publish it again.
- ouch: a small, cross-platform unified CLI app for file (de)compression
