Game Launcher - LaunchKit

Make your own game launcher. Like Steam, but just for your games.

Put all your games in one app with your name and logo. Players install with one click, and when you update a game, they get it automatically.

Free. No coding. Works with Unity, Unreal, Godot, GameMaker, or any game with an .exe.

Set it up in 5 minutes

1. Open it. Unzip and double-click Launcher.exe. Windows warning? Click More info → Run anyway.
2. Connect GitHub. Type your studio name in Brand. In Ship it, click Make repo and create it on GitHub. Then click Get token, pick only that repo, copy the token, paste it back and click Connect. You need a free GitHub account. Your players don't.
3. Add your stuff. Brand: name, logo, colors. Games: Add game → pick your game's folder. It uploads by itself. Click Save changes.
4. Ship it. Click Publish to players, then Export launcher. Send that folder to your players. You only do this once.

Updating your game

Bump the version number, pick the new game folder, click Publish. Done. Every player gets an UPDATE button the next time they open your launcher.

Built with security in mind

• We never ask for your password. You give LaunchKit a key that only works on your one launcher repo. Nothing else on your GitHub can be touched, and you can cancel the key any time.
• Your key stays on your PC. It's saved encrypted and never goes into the launcher you send to players.
• Players stay private. No sign-up, no accounts, no personal info. The launcher just downloads your games.
• No tracking. No ads, no analytics, nothing sent back to us.
• Open source. Anyone can check the code.
• Tip: turn on two-factor login on your GitHub so only you can push updates to your players.

What your players get

• One-click install, update and uninstall
• Your news and patch notes on the home page
• Discord and website buttons
• Your Roblox, Steam or itch games can go in it too

Good to know

• Windows 10 / 11
• Up to 2 GB per game (GitHub's limit)
• Your game files are hosted in a public GitHub repo
