About the app

playit.gg is a networking service that make it possible to host game servers at home that anyone across the world can join. We do this through our custom tunneling software. When you launch the playit program, the program will connect to our Anycast Network and assign you a static IP and port. You can then share your static IP and port with friends. When they connect, their connection information will go to the nearest tunnel server and be tunneled to the playit program running on your computer. By tunneling the connection, your friend is able to connect to the server running within your network.

Hello, thank you for taking the time to request this to be added to Pi-Apps. First, I recommend you tweak your github issue to get the title right. Of course I could do it, but it would get annoying if I did that for everyone.

I recommend reading through our app submission documentation. It includes some script-writing guidelines and specific allowed ways to install apt packages.
In your case, you should be using our install_packages function, and you should be removing the apt repo and GPG key on uninstall. You also missed some || error lines.
Also your description should include usage information. Consider it a short manpage or --help menu. Users should be able to look at your description and get a good understanding on how and when to use the program, not a bunch of corporate-speak about 'our custom tunneling software'. Also, I can't tell if this is open source or not. You should probably make that clear. And you should make clear how this tunneling software is better than the competition. (And there is a lot of competition.)

also don't lie about the compressed folder format. what you uploaded is not a zip file. it is a 7z file.

Playit.gg.zip: 7-zip archive data, version 0.4

thats where you are wrong. 7z and zip are totally different archival formats and are not compatible with one another. by renaming it to an incompatible format you did break the archive. it cannot be extracted by the zip cli tool.
