I have recently downloaded this game and it works fine but I like to create custom tiles for the windows 8 start screen because I don't like the way the standard tiles look. I use obly tile to do this. Unfortunately I can't get the tiles to behave like the shortcuts that gog has created. I have managed to get the dosbox games to open as they do from the gog shortcuts but I can't get the custom tiles to work properly with scummvm. All I can do is set the tile to open scummvm and select the game I want to play manually. Does anyone else have some experience in this area?

I think I've tried this to no avail but I'll give it another go. do you know of another programme that creates custom tiles?
