What is this even?
Hi, I'm Tim and I've been dreaming about building VaporLens for the past decade. The idea was born after I listened to one of the rants by the great TotalBiscuit (RIP - I still miss his content) about how game scores are meaningless without knowing the reviewer's preferences. After all, if you don't know what someone likes, how can you tell if their score is relevant to you?
Since then, I've been pondering whether there's a better way to present video game reviews in a concise and simple format. After more than a decade of trying to figure this out - without spending a fortune on NLP tool R&D - I finally cracked it in 2025 with the help of modern LLMs.
This is my passion project and the culmination of decades spent obsessing over this one idea. I personally find it incredibly useful and plan to keep improving it for myself as long as I can.
If you find it helpful, share it with friends. Seeing those numbers go up makes my data-driven soul happy :)
And if you'd like to support me directly, there are a few ways to do that below.
