Fixed in 0.1.7

• "Try it" on a Steam game now starts the same program Steam's Play button starts. Before, Couchlink guessed the biggest program in the game's folder and sometimes picked the wrong one. With Couchlink unzipped inside a game's folder, it even started Couchlink's own service, which stopped at once with "exited with code 3".
• For games from other stores and your own games, the guess now prefers a program named like the game, and never picks Couchlink's own files.

New in 0.1.7

• Click a "Try it" game to see which program it starts. If that is not the game, press Change and pick the right one from the game's folder, or any file inside it with "Pick a file". "Let Couchlink pick" undoes it.

Good to know

• This is an alpha. Tell us how your games run on the Co-op Anything Discord; Settings, General, Logs has "Save full report" for when something breaks.
• Couchlink works with any installed copy of a game.
• A macOS build is in the works.
