Home menu game recommendation

The Home menu Game recommendation contains a JSON file that must follow the schematic below. All root tree of JSON must start with "items": [ . Failure to do so will have a TypeError: Unexpected at <!. This is known to be problematic. Easy fix is to input the mandatory field called items. The fields must contain these.

{

            "name":"Name of game", // Mandatory field

            "Version": 1, // Supported by only a few launchers. Graycrown does not support this field, leaving it optional

            "developer": "Developer name", // Basic metadata, Graycrown doesn't need it

            "feed":"https://put-your.rss/url/here", // RSS feed, Graycrown doesn't support it

            "info":"A Brief summary of the game", // Mandatory field

            "banner":"https://bobuxstation.github.io/Coal-Web/banners/Memeforest.png", // Mandatory field

            "link":"https://bobuxstation.github.io/Coal-Web/Memeforest/index.html", // Mandatory field

            "download":"https://bobuxstation.github.io/Coal-Web/DownloadGames/MemeforestGame.html" // Only AB Coal supports this, Graycrown doesn't

},

You can even put multiple of these.

The final file should look like these.
