Accounts are what transform Crafted Gamz from a one-time session into a personalised workspace you can return to. Without an account, everything you do — the mode you choose, the bookmarks you save, the apps you install in Desktop mode, the tabs you open in Browser mode — exists only for the duration of that visit. With an account, all of that is stored in Firebase Firestore and restored the moment you sign back in, from any device or browser. For users who spend meaningful time in any of the three modes, signing in is the single most impactful thing they can do to improve their experience.

​
Sign-In Methods

Crafted Gamz uses Firebase Auth (loaded via firebase-auth-compat.js) to handle authentication, and Firebase Firestore (loaded via firebase-firestore-compat.js) to store and sync per-user data. Three sign-in methods are supported, each suited to a slightly different preference.
Signing in with Google is the fastest option for most users. It requires no password and uses your existing Google account, making it a natural fit for Chromebook users who are already signed into Google on the device.Steps:
  1. Open Crafted Gamz and navigate to the sign-in screen, accessible from the account menu in any mode.
  2. Click Sign in with Google.
  3. A Google OAuth popup will appear. Select the Google account you want to use.
  4. Grant the requested permissions. Crafted Gamz uses these solely to establish your identity — it does not access your Gmail, Drive, or other Google services.
  5. You will be redirected back into the platform, signed in and ready to use. Your session is now persistent.
Google sign-in supports one-tap re-authentication on return visits, so subsequent sign-ins are typically frictionless.

​
What Accounts Sync

When you are signed in, Crafted Gamz stores and restores the following across sessions and devices:

Preferred Environment

The mode you last used — Website, Desktop, or Browser — is remembered so you return to the right environment on each visit.

Onboarding Progress

Setup steps and introductory flows are tracked per account, so you are never walked through them again after completing them.

Bookmarks

Bookmarks saved in Browser mode, including bookmarks bar pins, are stored to your account and available on every return visit.

Pins

Apps and shortcuts pinned to the Desktop dock or saved in other modes are tied to your account and restored automatically.

Open Tabs

Browser mode tab state is preserved per account, so your browsing session can be resumed where you left off.

Settings and Preferences

Local preferences — including theme choices, background presets, and other configuration — are persisted per user.

App and Desktop State

Installed apps, window arrangements, and desktop configuration in Desktop mode are saved to your account.
All sync data is stored in Firebase Firestore, a cloud-hosted NoSQL database. This means your account state is available from any browser or device where you sign in — not just the device where you originally set things up.

​
Guest Access

Guest mode is available for users who want to explore Crafted Gamz without creating or linking an account. In guest mode, all platform features remain accessible — you can play games, use the proxy, open the AI assistant, browse media, and use Desktop mode — but nothing is saved when your session ends. Closing the tab or navigating away clears your state entirely. Guest mode is best suited to quick, one-off visits or initial exploration. For any meaningful ongoing use of the platform, signing in is strongly recommended. You can transition from a guest session to a signed-in session at any time by opening the account menu and completing the sign-in flow — though state accumulated during a guest session is not retroactively merged into the new account.
If you try Crafted Gamz as a guest and want to keep using it, sign in before you close the tab. Once you authenticate, any future sessions will begin with your synced state restored.

​
Account-Backed Features by Mode

Each of the three modes in Crafted Gamz benefits from account sign-in in distinct ways.

​
Website Mode

In Website mode, signing in preserves your preferred landing experience, any platform-level preferences you have configured, and your onboarding status. It also ensures that top-game tracking and platform statistics reflect your activity over time rather than treating each visit as a fresh start.

​
Desktop Mode

Desktop mode has the deepest account integration. Your installed apps — everything you have added from the app store — are saved to your account so the same applications are present every time you open the desktop. Dock pins, window state, and desktop configuration are all persisted. The AI assistant also maintains continuity with your account context, allowing it to reference your installed apps and desktop state accurately across sessions.

​
Browser Mode

Browser mode stores bookmarks, bookmarks bar pins, open tabs, server and region preferences, and your chosen theme and background preset. Because Browser mode is designed to function as a primary browsing workspace, this level of persistence is essential — returning to find your tabs, bookmarks, and visual setup intact makes the experience genuinely usable as a day-to-day tool rather than a single-session utility.
