Storage

gameWatch stores it's tracked time along side it's title part of the entry. The file is called "watch". Example of contents:

(Stardew Valley, 100)
(Among Us, 321)
(Undertale, 10000)
(Minecraft, 31231)

The application stores minutes.

Auto-save

The main reason of the creation for this app is in the case of a power outtage, your time spent is saved. The auto-save feature is called every 5 minutes.

Limits

The app has a limit for the minutes it can hold. It's 2^32 minutes. Which is about 8185 years. ;) But if you put negative minutes into the watch file idk what happends.

How to exit

The app will infinitely do this after you choose the start option. Therefore to exit you need to do it manually.

Cross-compatibility, Cross-compilation

I am using only standard c libraries: "stdio.h" "stdlib.h" "threads.h" "time.h"
