Please add support for itch.io and Twitch Desktop.

For reference itch.io launcher can be downloaded from: https://itch.io and Twitch Desktop allows people to play games offered by Twitch as well.

@PhantomNimbi I think this is a great idea, but from the "About" note, the developers want feedback and feature recommendations to be submitted from the Galaxy app:

There's a "Share Feedback" entry in the cogwheel menu.

Hi there. I've written a basic itch.io plugin for galaxy, and there's a few others as well. None of them are fully-featured currently and don't show up in the in-app search, but you can manually install them.

https://github.com/Mixaill/awesome-gog-galaxy contains a more thorough list of plugins for Galaxy as well as basic installation instructions. My plugin (listed as Itch.io (@tauqua)) has full library support but does not support installation or launching. Ertego's plugin integrates with the Itch app to support launching, but only displays games you already have installed. You'll also find a Twitch integration there.

Do note that with any of these integrations, Galaxy has an outstanding issue (#72) where games with little to no information show up as "Unknown Game" despite the plugin providing accurate information.

Gotcha, ok thanks for the response, and soz for the late reply. Been a while since I posted this and completely forgot about it lmao. Redownload Galaxy App rn. My PC has had to be refreshed a fair few times since I last used it lol.
