Customize the game icon

It takes 2 seconds to set up a custom icon!

This guide is a follow up to Get started.

Instructions

Open your MyGame.csproj, search for the following line:

<EmbeddedResource Include="Icon.bmp" />

replace it with:

<EmbeddedResource Include="Icon.bmp">
  <LogicalName>Icon.bmp</LogicalName>
</EmbeddedResource>

You can make your own icons using GIMP by opening both of your default Icon.bmp and Icon.ico, edit them, and then export using the Export As... command (CTRL + SHIFT + E).

Test

If you just want to test that it works, replace the default icons with these: Icon.bmp, Icon.ico.
