Instead of having a text field to note the date for added, started, beat, and completed. I switched things to a more flexible milestone system.

When you upgrade the status of a game, milestones are automatically added in that games history. If you skip a status, like upgrading from Started to Completed, the Beat milestone is inferred to happen on the same date as the Completed and also added automatically.



Let's say you forgot to mark when you started a game and the inferred date is wrong. Just delete the incorrect milestone and replace it with the correct date. (Note: In the above gif, at one point I'm clicking a delete confirmation outside the capture area)


The milestone system also supports duplicate milestones. Want to track how many times you've replayed a game? Just add another Beat milestone whenever you finish a playthrough.

Love it! Will our existing milestone dates be brought into the new site? And if so, will it be for all of our games or only those with a memory card entry that currently exists (~last few years)

No guarantees at this point, but I'd definitely like to transfer the current data to the new format. The current data is just a "dumb" list that isn't explicitly linked to specific game entries though, so it could be a bit of a messy transfer. The data in your memory card is everything we have, we don't archive the stuff that gets pushed off. If you want to keep from losing any more of your current history, I suggest loading up the memory card page, right clicking, and saving the page. Then when the remake launches, you can add in any memory card data that wasn't transferred.

I don't generally voice opinions about the site remake (I'm fine with whatever happens), but hot damn that is probably my favorite thing yet.

I really like this! Great for when I forget to put a game in until after I’ve beaten it.

OK, but what about the Page Notes? I'm keeping track of my numbers there. I'll have to save that also?

I loved the new milestone system! Stealth is dead?

Absolutely love this! If you rebeat a game will it still be "beaten" in your memory card therefore counting towards your yearly total aswell?

Joe Murray

I've not programmed that part yet, but the plan is for replays not to count as the number should reflect how the size of your backlog has changed.
