How long to beat

Made a dedicated tool that could scan all your available roms and estimate in total how long it’ll take you to complete them all (you can also see stats for each entry).

Also, threw in an option to search if there’s a game that’s not on your system.

To install, follow these steps:

  1. Download the howlongtobeat.muxzip
  2. Move the downloaded file to the /mnt/mmc/ARCHIVE folder.
  3. Open howlongtobeat.muxzip in applications menu and install
  4. Look for How long to beat in apps menu

I used an open source api and am thankful that they allowed such data to be fully accessible.

Enjoy & cheers! :clinking_beer_mugs:

Not sure if it’s my bad, but no icon appeared in the apps menu.

Device: CubeXX running PIXIE 2502 Patch 2.

EDIT: the following logs are yours, not mine… they came from the zip :confused:
After running install_dependencies.sh manually I can run mux_launch.sh but the resolution is broken. The zip contains .dependencies_installed too, so installation is not automatic.

Any plans to add this to the app downloader app for visibility/ease of download ?
