Error launching steam-idle with game ID #12

Hello,

i've tried using your application, it starts to scan my library just fine but when it tried to launch a game it failed with the following error message

[ 09/08/2022 04:41:53 PM ] WELCOME TO IDLE MASTER
[ 09/08/2022 04:41:53 PM ] Finding games that have card drops remaining

[ 09/08/2022 04:41:54 PM ] Error launching steam-idle with game ID 379720
Press Enter to continue...

Why does it fail to launch the game? Can I enable a more verbose logging output?

Thanks in advance :)

I got it to work, the application launches a python process, I dont have that alias on my python3 installation so it fails at this part. I fixed that locally by changing that part in the code to python3.
