Add the same game to steam multiple times, but with different exes?
I have the Kingdom Hearts 1.5 + 2.5 ReMix. I configured it to work properly. One of the steps to make it work is to skip the launcher and instead launch chosen exe directly. The collection has 4 games. I would like to add each of those games to steam separately, but I can't find a way to do it with Heroic Launcher.
I tried hacking it in by using the new "Add game" feature. I choose one of the exes, I choose the prefix in which Kingdom Hearts collection is installed. I hoped this would run the game in the same way as regular install, but if tails to work. The log says the mono is not installed. I'm pretty sure this feature is not for the usecase I have...
So, with the original install of KH collection, can I add it to steam multiple times, each time with target to different exe? If so how to do this? If it's impossible it's fine too, I just want to make sure.

Heroic bash launcher could possible do it but don't know if @redromnon still works on it

Bash Launcher will only produce one launch script or shortcut for the game.
As a workaround:
- Create copy of the shortcut/launch script
- Specify alternative exe (like KH 2.5 Remix) in that copy
- Add it to Steam
Since Heroic detects i KH 1.5 + 2.5 Remix as one game, so will Bash Launcher.
