We don't have the Steam API functionality yet. The Steam_API.DLL is there because GameGuru uses the Steam login, and also the Steam Workshop for multiplayer.

You can create a launcher that uses the Steam Api, but you would have to pass through any calls for achievements from somewhere else (LUA Scripts?)

Here is a link to Visual Studio 2015 steam plugin source code which is open source.

How are people creating finished products for Steam with Game Guru so quickly?

I think you would only be able to use a wrapper if you had direct access to the GameGuru source code, which no-one has, and if you had access to the C++ code, you would not need the wrapper For a few reasons, I am not putting a lot of emphasis on adding Steam support to GameGuru standalone's as I think the game engine needs further improvements before I would inflict more GameGuru games on the Steam population (some games I have liked but most of them get absolutely trounced by Steam users and YouTuber's looking for a quick vent).

90% of the Game Guru produced games on Steam are terrible lol Not all... but most. I'm a bit more wary of paying for any games made with it due to the experiences i've had with the lot of them.

No reason to, I love making trash

But I was not referring to me alone. If you have a hell of a machine to avoid fps issues, Hunted is actually a really good game by any standard applied.
