RegretPill shows gentle, spoiler-light reminders before you pass missable content in your games. Popups never steal focus, auto-dismiss in 10s, and you choose how much to reveal. Open source, Windows/Steam. Now supporting Black Myth: Wukong, more games coming.

Could you build this?
Partial While the notification overlay UI is straightforward, tracking game state and player progress on Windows/Steam requires memory reading, save-file parsing, or reverse engineering game telemetry.
What it would actually take: The desktop client (e.g. C#/WPF, Rust, or Electron) requires a background hook into Steam save file directories or active process memory reading to identify the player's exact chapter/quest triggers in games like Black Myth: Wukong. It requires game modding/reverse-engineering skills to decode proprietary save formats or inspect memory offsets, combined with an overlay system that doesn't trigger anti-cheat software.
