Python-based tool for downloading your GOG.com game collections and extras to your local computer for full offline enjoyment.
It is a clean standalone python script that can be run from anywhere. It requires a typical Python 2.7 installation and html5lib.
By default, game folders are saved in the same location that the script is run in. You can also specify another directory. Run gogrepo.py -h to see help or read more below. Each game has its own directories with all game/bonus files saved within.

- Ability to choose which games to download based on combinations of OS (windows, linux, mac) and language (en, fr, de, etc...)
- Saves a !info.txt in each game folder with information about each game/extra item.
- Creates a !serial.txt if the game has a special serial/cdkey (I know, not 100% DRM-free, is it?). Sometimes coupon codes are hidden here!
- Verify your downloaded collection with full MD5, zip integrity, and expected file size checking.
- Auto retrying of failed fetch/downloads. Sometime GOG servers report temporary errors.
- Ability to import your already existing local collection.
- Easy to throw into a daily cronjob to get all the latest updates and newly added content!
- Clear logging prints showing update/download progress and HTTP errors. Easy to pipe or tee to create a log file.
