Description

How can we help?

I would like help so I can submit the manifest.

Please read and ensure the following
  • The installer meets the above requirements
Please provide the following information

Download Page Url: https://spacestation14.com/about/nightlies/
Publisher: Space Wizards
Package Name: Space Station 14 Launcher
Description: Launcher for Space Station 14. A multiplayer game about paranoia and chaos on a space station.
Package Version: v0.28.0
Installer URL: https://github.com/space-wizards/SS14.Launcher/releases/latest/download/SS14.Launcher_Windows.zip

Originally was gonna pr at #160411 but i found out that winget currently does not support desktop/start menu entries for portable apps. (https://github.com/microsoft/winget-cli/issues/3314 and https://github.com/microsoft/winget-cli/issues/2299)

Either until this feature is added to winget, or if upstream project receives an installer I prefer to keep this as an issue

If either of the above are met I will submit a new pr.

Research direction

Review the referenced winget-cli issues #3314 and #2299 and the Space Station 14 nightlies download page. The issue is ready for a new manifest submission only after winget supports desktop or Start menu entries for portable apps, or the project provides an installer.
