Hi all!
In order to give people automated access to loads of game deals, I’ve created the CompuVerse Deals Bot!
This bot will automatically post new deals as they come in from https://isthereanydeal.com!
To try to keep the quality of the bot’s posts at least moderately good, there are a few limits in place.
The bot will only post deals which follow these rules:
- Offer title is at least 30% off
- Offer title has at least 75% positive reviews on Steam
- Offer title is not a DLC
The bot will automatically post the highest cut it has found in the title of the post, along with Steam review scores for the game.
The main body of each post will consist of basic review information on the game, and then a table listing current best known prices in GBP, USD and EUR (other currencies can be added in future if this is something people are interested in!)
I hope you find the bot useful.
Please let me know any suggestions or improvements you may have regarding this bot :)
Thanks,
Cameron
Does it handle bundles? I’d love for bundles from the major bundle sites to be posted, like Fanatical and Humble. Another thing that would be cool is seasonal sales from the major vendors.
Some other cool ideas:
Btw, thanks for handling this, it’s one of the communities I missed most. If you make the script public, I or others may be able to help implement some of the extras.
Now this is what I’d support. Hell, for bundles I’m willing to pitch in with manual help, as I’ve done that for reddit in the past. (And since Steam Deck Compatibility is harder to get through scraping/API calls, and SteamDB refuses to provide an API of their own or scrape, pointing to tools to do it yourself.)
Perhaps ProtonDB could be used for Steam Deck compatibility? It has a larger database than Valve’s own testing, plus there are some unofficial APIs based on database dumps.
I’ve manually put ProtonDB compatibility in an earlier Humble Bundle post of mine, see here.
