Full Steam Ahead – import games from other launchers into Steam

Full Steam Ahead is a desktop application that imports games from other launchers into Steam. It helps users bring together games installed through different stores and launchers, making them accessible from a single Steam library.

The application scans supported launchers for installed games and presents the results for review. Users can decide which titles to import, add their own non-Steam executables and choose how the imported games should be organised.

Full Steam Ahead also handles artwork for imported games, including grid images, logos and hero images. It uses artwork from Steam and SteamGridDB to make imported titles look more consistent with the rest of a Steam library. Changes can be previewed before being applied, with configuration backups providing a way to restore earlier settings.

This is free and open source software.
