UPDATE: Release 5 is now available

I have written a program that allows you to have a list of games and to launch a game from that list, reducing icon clutter on the desktop and is also helpful if you have multiple games in various locations such as multiple drives etc.

Some things that it features:

- displays box art for a game when selected
- drag and drop support of adding games and box art
- support for launching games that have command line arguments
- support for games that require steam (its not a steam replacement :D it still uses steam)
- now has a search feature so you can find the game your after
- double click game launching now added

Documentation on installation and use of the program is included in the .zip file (readme.txt)

The latest version is Release 5 and is available here:

http://sourceforge.net/project/downloading.php?group_id=165550&use_mirror=osdn&filename=Game_Launcher_Release_5.zip&18540721

The source code is available on SVN

Tell us what you think of it, any suggestions, improvements....

All feedback is welcome
