Inspiration
We noticed that while there are plenty of games, there aren’t many tools to help manage them. So, we created GAME CATCHER—a game management tool for gamers and developers.
What It Does
Real-Time Emotion Analysis Tracks your emotions during gameplay by analyzing facial expressions. It saves screenshots along with emotional data so you can see when you were most engaged or when your interest started to drop.
“Why Am I Doing This?” Alert If you’re experiencing negative emotions for more than 5 minutes, the system sends you a warning and suggests taking a break (with a pre-set timer).
AI Assistance When Stuck A simple click on the Help button captures your current gameplay state and offers tips based on game guides, ensuring you get practical advice exactly when you need it.
Gaming Dashboard View all your gaming stats in one place—including your favorite games, play frequency, total playtime, and more.
