Epic Games Loot Ping (EGLP)

Display and track current free & upcoming free games from the Epic Games Store.

This whole thing started as a fun little passion project I made for myself because I kept forgetting to grab the free games from the Epic Games Store. I honestly didn’t plan on releasing it — so please don’t expect a polished, million-dollar app or anything 😅 That said, it works pretty well! You’ll get a clean UI showing which games are free now and which ones are coming up next, with a live countdown timer so you never miss out. The countdown even changes colors: 🟢 Green when there’s plenty of time 🟡 Yellow when time’s running low 🔴 Red when it’s about to end You can click any game to jump right to its Epic Games Store page. There’s also a notification toggle — it pings you every Thursday at 11AM EST when new games drop via windows notifications and if you are a mac user chrome. No accounts, no tracking, no strings attached. Just free game goodness. Might be bugs. Might get updates. Might not... Either way, feel free to leave feedback — good or brutal, I’m here for it. -Greazy Change Log: Version 1.16.1: -Adjusted mystery game boxes to display as placeholders until their reveal date then reveal the actual game details. -Improved artwork retrieval with multiple fallback methods for all games, ensuring compatibility with weekly new releases. -Fixed artwork, developer, display for games that were not displaying correctly. -Removed publisher field due to inconsistent API data, now displaying only developer info.
