Vantage Point: Game Tracker
The game tracker for people who actually finish games.
Six lists, your call. Steam + Xbox + RetroAchievements imports. Discover smart picks from your archive. PS5/Xbox/Switch deal tracking. 14-outlet gaming news. Scout your friends' libraries. No ads. Pro is $1.99/mo. Built by one indie dev with a massive backlog.
Vantage Point started because I have what feels like an endless backlog of unplayed games across Steam, Game Pass, and PSN, and zero idea what I actually wanted to play next.
Every tracker I tried felt either bloated and forum-heavy, or too bare (basically a spreadsheet with cover art). I wanted the middle: imports that actually work, a Discover feed that learns from what I FINISH (not what I bought), and a way to know when a wishlisted game hits its real all-time low, not a $5 markdown pretending to be a deal.
What's actually here:
- Six lists you control: Front Line (playing), Sightlines (upcoming, with release-day push), Chambered (locked in next), Watchlist (maybes), Out of Vision (the dump), and Archive (everything you've finished, with ratings and hours).
- Imports: Steam (full library + playtime), Xbox (gamerscore + games), PlayStation (your played games), and RetroAchievements (points + counts, softcore and hardcore).
- Discover: picks seeded from your highest-rated Archive games. Not a generic algorithm, your own taste.
- Recon: wishlist any game on PC, PS5, Xbox, or Switch. Get an alert when it lands within 5% of its all-time low, plus PS Plus discounts when they apply.
- Sector Intelligence: a 14-outlet news feed (Polygon, IGN, Push Square, Pure Xbox, Nintendo Life, Time Extension, and more). Pro adds curated YouTube creator coverage (Skill Up, ACG, Digital Foundry, Easy Allies).
- Scout Network: paste a friend's scout code and see their taste DNA radar against yours. "60% match with DW" is a real conversation starter. You can also plan expeditions (co-op sessions) with friends in a couple of taps.
- Oracle: an AI gaming advisor that gives hints instead of spoilers. Bring your own Gemini key, and it stays on your device, never our servers.
- Gauntlet: 110 challenges that turn your backlog into a meta-game (finish a 100-hour epic, clear three RPGs, archive a hidden gem you rate 4 stars). Completing them ranks up a profile tier.
Free tier handles the daily job. Pro is $1.99/mo or $17.99/year. No ads, ever, on either tier.
Happy to answer anything: feature requests, "why this and not [X]," whatever. The Discord link is in the app, and the support email goes straight to my phone.
Vantage point has been really fun to use to track what games I have been playing and what games I want to play next. The app can also reccommend new games to check out based on waht you have played in the past. Its really nice when I want to find similar games to something I just beat but don't quite know what to look for. The app also has a feature to schedule time with your friends to play and vote on what game to play.
