Hello. I just added an icon to my main file (game.ged) at the game proprierties. But when I export to game.exe, the pacman icon remains. Anything wrong? The icon file is in the data folder. Thanks.

Ok. Sorry. I was trying to build an icon using Photoshop. It was not working. So, I used IcoFX (www.icofx.ro) and it's worked very nice. :-)

You can also make an icon in M.S. Paint or Gimp by adding the extension .ico :D

Is it simple to make a vector image based icon?

It is impossible to have an icon containing vectors. You'll need to render for many sizes if you have a vector image you want to use
