Is there a way to change the icon under linux?
From my understanding, the implementation isn't there for linux.

Yes, you can change the icon on linux, using the GameWindow.Icon property.

Note that this changes the window icon, not the file icon. (To change the file icon you need to use a [application name].desktop file, IIRC).

Does the icon need to be in a specific format? Or do I need to set it before I create the window?
I tried stepping in the code and noticed it does seem to apply my icon. But i keep getting the interrogation point.
Again thanks for the quick reply. Thats the last bit keeping me from completing my game.
