Tickrates

Tickrates is a modern, social game backlog tracker and gaming diary built for gamers who struggle to organize their growing game collections and want a clean way to share their gaming journey. ### The Problem It Solves: Traditional backlog tracking tools are often clunky, outdated, or lack meaningful social features. Gamers frequently lose track of games they own across multiple storefronts, struggle to keep an organized history of finished titles, and have no centralized place to share reviews with friends. ### Key Features & How It Works: - **Instant Steam Sync:** Users can connect their Steam accounts using SteamID64 to automatically import playtimes, owned games, and library history without manual effort. - **+TICK & Gaming Diary:** Log played games, track playtimes, leave star ratings (including half-star support), and write detailed reviews. - **Social Activity Feed:** Follow friends to see what they are currently playing, read their latest reviews, and discover new titles through community recommendations. - **Backlog & Collection Management:** Easily filter, sort, and organize your backlog to keep your gaming library fully under control. - **Global Game Database:** Integrated with IGDB and Steam Web API to provide high-quality cover arts, metadata, release dates, and game details. Tickrates combines clean design, automated library synchronization, and social interactions into a unified platform for video game enthusiasts.
