Another project that turns websites into desktop apps with the help of Electron is Nativefier:

Very stable, I can recommend it. I used it so far with WhatsApp, AirConsole and Just Dance Now.

It wasn't possible to make it work with GeForce NOW though, as GFN requires opening a new browser tab to log in.

Developed by Lizard Hazard Games, the same team behind Your Royal Gayness and LoveBug, they've continued their Linux support with their latest title.
I really liked Your Royal Gayness. I hope this one is also that good!

The Darkside Detective: Season 2 gains a demo, now releasing in 2021

"Akupara Games is shifting towards a catalog of spooky and narrative-focused adventure and horror games which align with titles such as Whispering Willows and Mutazione. When we saw The Darkside Detective series we knew it was an absolutely perfect fit for our ever-growing spoopy family." - David Logan, CEO
The Darkside Detective isn't a horror game at all though. It's a comedy point'and'click adventure.

Also ugh, why are there so many horror games 👎
