Support for RetroAchievement's Progression, Missable & Beaten markers

In 2023, RetroAchievements introduced Progression & Win Conditions, which allow achievements to contribute towards marking a game as Beaten or Mastered. These additions provide a structured way to track completion status, making it easier for players to see their progress at a glance.

🔗 More information on this concept:

Proposed Integrations in LaunchBox & Big Box

To enhance the integration of RetroAchievements, here are several ways LaunchBox could implement these new features:

1) Game Details Pane Integration

• Display Beaten and Mastered markers directly on the game details pane in LaunchBox.

• In Big Box mode, add similar visual markers to the game details page to easily track completion status.

☝️ Example of how beaten markers are shown on the RA website

2) Pause Menu Achievements Tab Enhancements

• Under the Achievements tab in LaunchBox’s pause menu, display icons or labels for:

• Progression Achievements (those required to beat the game).

• Win Condition Achievements (final achievements marking completion).

• Missable Achievements (achievements that can be permanently lost in a playthrough).

• Bonus Suggestion: Introduce separate tabs for each of these categories for better organization.

☝️ Example of all 3 types of achievements

Would love to hear if others would like to see this implemented, or suggestions for how to integrate it.

    Hi Everyone,

    As of the recently released 13.22, LaunchBox now supports this feature in both the game details page and pause menu achievement overlays! 🙌

    You can learn more about it and see how these progression indicators are implemented here:
