Some games require to run their executables from the installed directory to execute properly (e.g. Retro City Rampage). So, it will be useful to change the working directory (chdir) before execute them.

What path do such games usually need? Game dir or executable dir? What if executable is in some subdir?

I hope var dir = executable.get_parent().get_path(); will be enough in most cases.
