Hey everyone, I FINALLY implemented support for compilation games! This feature has been on my list for a loooong time now and it feels good to at least somewhat take care of it. I'll be loading the database over the next few days / weeks with compilation games that I personally own and that have been requested here on the forums.

So how do they work? Well, you can continue to enter games like you have been, if you prefer. Or if you want to utilize this new feature, you can enter the compilation game itself (ex. Super Mario All-Stars). If you enter a compilation game, you can see a breakdown of the individual games within the compilation on the Collection Details page. You can track your progress, now playing, backlog, etc per game, if you choose. On the Collection Search page, you can toggle an option that will "break out" the compilation games. If this option is enabled (and it is by default), the individual compilation games will be displayed in the results, along with the compilation game itself.

I have bigger plans for this feature, but I wanted to share it with you guys sooner rather than later, so this will have to do for now.

Anyways, I've tried to create this feature in the most flexible way possible, because that's the Completionator way! If you have any suggestions or feedback, please let me know.
