Gameyfin

Transform folders of DRM-free PC installers and retro game archives into a browsable, cover-art-rich digital storefront with Gameyfin, a self-hosted video game library server for LAN parties, homelabs, and family networks. Point the server at your mounted storage directories and its automated scanner indexes game archives, executables, and multi-part installers while showing real-time progress and estimated completion times. Bundled metadata plugins pull game synopses, release dates, developer credits, screenshots, and high-resolution box art from IGDB, Steam, and SteamGridDB according to your configured provider priority. Players can browse collections by genre or platform, inspect detailed game pages, and download installers directly through their web browser or via a built-in BitTorrent tracker and seeding client that distributes bandwidth across LAN participants. Administrators can manage multiple isolated libraries, trigger quick or full folder scans, customize UI themes including colorblind-accessible palettes, and enforce single sign-on via OAuth2 and OpenID Connect identity providers. Every cover image and metadata record is cached locally on disk so offline LAN events keep full browsing and download functionality without internet access. Built-in Prometheus actuator endpoints expose library and runtime metrics for infrastructure monitoring dashboards. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. AGPL-3.0 licensed.
