Dear friends, do you remember Egor, our ex-programmer?
He left Clarus Victoria team a while ago to develop his own project.

A couple of days ago he finally presented it to us and it looks really cool! The project is already live for beta testing and it needs your participation!

Name of the project - notigame.me and it is a Discord bot. This bot makes life easier for everybody who wants to follow the news about their favorite games but got tired from losing information in an endless social network feeds.

With the service, you can find news from official sources about all the games you select. All you need is to build your collection of games you want to follow and the bot will send news right to your Discord.

What service can:

· aggregate news from Steam.
· send it to user's Discord.

Plans:

· aggregation news from official websites and developers social network accounts.
· the personalized news feed on the website.
· mobile application.
· feedback tools for developers.

What service can't:
· send ads.

The website is in the early development stage and your feedback and request will take into account during future feature development! We think that the project looks great and invite everybody to join https://notigame.me, follow favorite games and give feedback to Egor. With this service, you will never miss anything! :)
