PlayWay Launcher

The PlayWay Launcher was crafted to serve as an extra marketing tool for PlayWay's array of games. It showcases banners for both new and upcoming games, visible right before a player starts a game featuring the launcher. A key feature of the launcher was its no-code customization capability, allowing each development studio to personalize the launcher to tailor its look and feel to match the unique style of their game. During 2021-2022, it was utilized in dozens of prologues and demos of PlayWay's titles. The project was done in TypeScript, using React and Electron for the launcher app. Nest.js was used for the backend, which was hosted using Azure Functions and Cosmos DB due to their excellent scalability and low cost of operation.
