minigalaxy VS lgogdownloader

Personally I use mini galaxy. https://sharkwouter.github.io/minigalaxy/

Minigalaxy is great for native apps. Lutris is hit or miss for wine/DVXK.

E.g. Minigalaxy offers many of GoG Galaxys features (Tagging /u/anevilduck here in case he doesn't know it) and only has around 13500 lines of Code.

The official client isn't, but there is a 3rd party one available for Linux https://github.com/sharkwouter/minigalaxy

So long as you have a Vulkan capable GPU, you should be able to get almost all GOG games working. You could use Lutris with GOG Galaxy, Lutris with GOG offline installers or MiniGalaxy.

HeroicGamesLauncher / MiniGalaxy: Launcher alternative for the EpicGamesLauncher / GoG.

Besides there are other projects like https://github.com/sharkwouter/minigalaxy that has some of their coding from PlayNite and of their own to work on Linux and there are Tutorials like https://playnite.link/forum/thread-1156.html to make it work nonetheless. Also thanks to Steam's Proton layering, everything is easier at Linux gaming side.

I use https://github.com/Sude-/lgogdownloader it is for Linux however. You can probably run it in WSL though.

If you have access to Linux, there's a community tool called LGOGDownloader that can download your whole library or selected parts of it in one go. It can also list any local files that aren't in your GOG account anymore, e.g. older versions of updated games. I use it regularly to keep my offline library of 600+ games up to date.

My local GOG library is maintained by the third-party LGOGDownloader. I'm using GOG Galaxy only for a handful of Windows games that do require it for multiplayer.

I recently discovered that my GOG downloader (https://github.com/Sude-/lgogdownloader) is currently broken, I've updated to the latest version but it seems GOG changed their API?

No idea if it runs on windows, but for linux there is https://github.com/Sude-/lgogdownloader/ i download all my games with this command:

Nice! How does this compare to lgogdownloader? (https://github.com/Sude-/lgogdownloader)

https://sites.google.com/site/gogdownloader/ I found it in my AUR repository so I expect it to be in the repository of whatever distribution you might choose.

There actually is lgogdownloader, which apparently implements part of the GOG Galaxy API, but it seems to only do listing, downloading, and installing of games, and not whatever else Galaxy does.
