New Backer Beta Feature

Here you can toggle the fading of games you've played when viewing any list along with a percentage indicator for some extra visual flare.I'm still working out some kinks and wanted to leave the room open for any feedback before officially launching it into the site. You'll be able to use this once 1.4.2 launches later today!

1.3.0 Progress Update / Details

Hello! I just wanted to share a little on how the progress of the journal update is going, especially with how long it is taking.The WaitThis coming update is pretty much uprooting the core system of Backloggd with how Plays currently work.
