- Game Frame is out! 15% bundle discount and a development update - 25 September 2026
Hello everyone, Game Frame is now available in Early Access on Steam! I would like to introduce the new app and share a short personal update about the recent gap in Game Compressor updates. What does Game Frame offer? While Game Compressor focuses on freeing up storage space in your game library, Game Frame brings visual and performance tools for your gaming sessions together in one application: 2×–8× frame generation or Target FPS mode, with adjustable Flow Scale and built-in HUD protection. FSR 1, NIS, and Bicubic upscaling options. Automatic frame pacing with frame generation. FPS limiting and optional Pulse latency controls in supported games without anti-cheat. Per-game profiles, in-game quick controls, and a performance overlay. Use frame generation and upscaling separately or together. In supported games, FPS limiting and Pulse can also be used without enabling frame generation.…
- Game Compressor v1.1.1 Update and Apology - 19 August 2026
I disappeared for a month. No update came out, and I didn't write a single reply on the forums. You noticed; a "Where's the Dev?" thread went up, and the person who opened it was right from start to finish.Here is what happened: after I released v1.0.0, I started a job in another city. I hadn't found a place to live yet, so I was staying in a hotel — no desk, no routine, nowhere at all to sit down in the evening and work on the app. But the reason doesn't really matter that much. I definitely had time to write you two lines, and I didn't.While I was gone, some people wrote that I had "taken the money and run". That didn't hurt my feelings. If you hear nothing at all for a month, it is completely normal for that to cross your mind — the only thing there was silence, and I am the one who created that silence. I have no reason to be angry with anyone.In the end I quit that job; it was gett…

Nearly everything in it comes straight from your reviews, discussions and comments. Keep them coming; they work. New lookNew logo and visual identity - a glossy green cube compressed by four steel arrows. New app icon, tray icon, and the whole interface (dark and light) recolored from the logo's palette.New features you asked forFast compression (default ON) - files that are already compressed (videos, game audio, images, archives, always-compressed game containers) are skipped entirely instead of wasting CPU for zero gain. Media can be 40-70% of a big game, so compression finis…
- Game Compressor v0.9.9.4 - 3 July 2026
Game Compressor v0.9.9.4This update is about trust. You told us the app wouldn't close properly, that progress looked frozen, and that savings numbers didn't match what Windows showed. You were right - all three are fixed, and every number the app shows is now measured from disk. And because so many of you wrote to us in your own language, the whole app now speaks 30 languages. NewNow available in 30 languages - the entire interface, every dialog and message, is fully translated into 30 languages (Arabic, Bulgarian, Chinese Simplified & Traditional, Czech, Danish, Dutch, English, Finnish, French, German, Greek, Hindi, Hungarian, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Norwegian, Polish, Portuguese BR & PT, Romanian, Russian, Spanish ES & LatAm, Swedish, Thai, Turkish, Ukrainian, Vietnamese).
