You can add any program as a non-steam game to Steam. It simply adds it as a shortcut, but you can add art and icons.
It was a joke a long time ago to rename a random exe like Notepad as "Half Life 3 Beta", add it to Steam, and troll your friends by leaving it running all day.
Not only adds it as a shortcut, but also allows you to use steam input to remap controls, very useful on the deck.
I'm stealing that for the next time I'm playing a non-steam game. It's just old enough nobody will know.
What is the most convenient way to add art? Is there a tool, something more automatic than downloading jpgs from some website yourself?
You just right click the game entry in various contexts to add an icon, banner art, etc. There are like 4 different sizes and contexts.

Thank you! Exactly what I was looking for.
It's important to mention that you need to set the shortcut to run as Proton Experimental.
