Inspired by Jellyfin and after found that the awesome Gameyfin project is not supported for arm64 architectures and it is a general game library manager, I decided to develop my own game library solution, focused on retro gaming.
For now, it is only available as a docker image (amd64/arm64)
- Scans your game library (all at once or by platform) and enriches it with IGDB metadata
- Access your library via your web-browser
- Possibility to select one of the matching IGDB results if the scan doesn't get the right one
- Download games directly from your web-browser
- Edit your game files directly from your web-browser
- Set a custom cover for each game [WIP]
- Upload games directly from your web-browser [WIP]
- Manage save files directly from your web-browser [WIP]
- Responsive design
- Light and dark theme
To allow RomM scan your retro games library, it should follow the following structure:
library/
├─ gbc/
│ ├─ roms/
│ ├─ rom_1.gbc
│ ├─ rom_2.gbc
|
├─ gba/
│ ├─ roms/
│ ├─ rom_1.gba
│ ├─ rom_2.gba
|
├─ gb/
│ ├─ roms/
│ ├─ rom_1.gb
│ ├─ rom_1.gb
romm_readme.mp4
RomM.Presentation.-.mobile.mp4
Last version of the docker image
Check the docker-compose.yml example
Get API key from IGDB for the CLIENT_ID and CLIENT_SECRET variables.
The following table shows how to name your platforms folders in order to get the games metadata. This will change over the time, adding games metadata for more platforms. Make sure that the platforms folder names are lowercase.

After the first installation, sometimes the RomM container can have problems connecting with the database. Restarting the RomM container may solve the problem.
