kolektor's answer:
While the purpose of the app may be similar to competitors, kolektor is taking a different approach: Emulation/retro-gaming won't be a priority. We will rather focus on providing tools for organizing your game library. Game files management will be our main goal (either you have your games on ISO/BIN/CUE etc, or your installed executables, ZIP files, etc), you can choose whatever filetype you want to identify as a game. Also, folders can be used to fetch data for games. We are committed to provide an ultra-fast, lightweight, customizable and beautiful application.
