Introduction

GameGlue lets you build web-based addons for PC games using just HTML and JavaScript. No need to learn game-specific APIs or native programming languages.

What GameGlue Does

  • Streams game data - Receive real-time telemetry (altitude, speed, position, etc.) in your web app
  • Sends commands - Control the game from your app (toggle autopilot, switch lights, etc.)
  • Works cross-device - Your addon can run on any device with a browser - phone, tablet, or second monitor

How It Works

The GameGlue Desktop Client runs alongside the game and connects to GameGlue Cloud. Your web app connects to the cloud using the SDK to receive data and send commands.

Game → Desktop Client → Cloud → Your Web App
