A Rust terminal user interface client wrapping steamcmd for launching, updating, and downloading Steam games from the terminal. It acts as a lightweight graphical wrapper for users whose Steam client is broken or unwanted.

Use cases

  • launch steam games from the terminal
  • manage steam library without the steam client
  • download and update games via steamcmd
  • run steam games on linux with wine fallback
  • lightweight steam client alternative for tiling window managers

When to choose

  • your Steam client crashes or won't run on your Linux setup
  • you prefer terminal-based workflows and minimal clients
  • you want to script custom launch behavior per game

When to avoid

  • you need full Steam features like chat, store, or achievements
  • you play DRM-heavy games requiring the full Steam client
  • you want an actively developed project with new features
