Meanwhile PortProton which did similar thing long time ago :)
..so did Lutris, Bottles, ZentryWine and like 8 others. That's why we created yet a new program to unify them all!
(To be fair, I like the fact we have choices, and hope this project takes off, but yea..)
Sounds like this would be easier to setup and use than Lutris though - dunno about everyone else but I'm always so very confused trying to get non-steam games running on linux, with all the custom paths, simulated folder structures and prefixes while steam apparently does it on its own out of the box.
