GameTrackDaily

Public-facing games site for the current lineup, plus public-safe Game Development, curated Review Coverage, Games News, and Release Calendar surfaces.

This repo is set up as a static GitHub Pages site. It intentionally does not include the private local-launch controls from the desktop hub. Instead, it acts as the public layer where game pages, screenshots, demos, store links, shared craft guidance, aggregated news, and curated games data can grow over time.

Games News is split into four public rails:

• Game Dev News
• Gaming News
• Games Reviews
• Games Previews

Those Reviews and Previews rails are curated coverage from the wider games press. They are not intended to become a personal house-review publication.

The public shell now uses the Arcade design system and focused pages instead of cramming everything into one surface:

• releases.html for the Arcade release radar and platform-filtered schedule
• games.html for the full lineup
• game-development.html for public-safe craft/reference
• news.html as the news landing page
• news-development.html, news-gaming.html, news-reviews.html, and news-previews.html for the four feed rails
• reviews.html for review/previews coverage navigation
• calendar.html as a compatibility alias for the release radar
• events.html for conferences, showcases, awards, local times, and official watch links

The current launch shell is designed as an editorial watch desk rather than a repo index:

• a stronger homepage built around launch radar, labelled provisional data, and featured public candidates
• a cleaner masthead and page framing across the whole public shell
• more deliberate separation between lineup, coverage, releases, and events
• a shared footer across every route with GameTrackDaily links, project links, contact/source links, and Elusion Works as the umbrella home

Release Calendar now stays focused on Windows PC, Xbox, and PlayStation release tracking, while Events handles conferences, showcases, and awards with local-time drill-downs and official watch destinations.

That news layer is filtered to Windows PC, Xbox, and PlayStation. Xbox and PlayStation coverage should use specific model or service tags such as Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, PlayStation 5, Xbox Game Pass, or PlayStation Plus where the source supports that detail.

Public vs Private

• This repo is public-facing only.
• The private studio console stays in the separate local-only local-hub/ workspace and is ignored here.
• Do not commit machine-local evidence, review captures, launch scripts, or internal planning notes.
• Keep this repo safe for GitHub Pages and public browsing.
• Treat shared/game-development/, shared/game-reviews/, and data/ as public-safe shared content the private console may also consume.

Local preview

python -m http.server 8790

Then open http://127.0.0.1:8790.

Deployment

The repo includes a GitHub Pages workflow in .github/workflows/deploy.yml.

Once GitHub Pages is enabled for the repository, pushes to main will publish the site automatically.

Contributor Notes

• Keep visible naming aligned with GameTrackDaily.
• Treat this as a public showcase and reference surface, not an operations dashboard.
• If a change only helps local management, it belongs in the private console, not this repo.
