Credits
The app loads its working data from the existing Game Rewind UK Google Sheet, so sheet updates can appear in the app without rebuilding the site. Game cover images are provided through IGDB where available. Cinema, rental, wrestling, and cartoon images may use TMDB-linked data from the sheet. Music cover images may use the Cover Art Archive / MusicBrainz.
