Just a few short comments on the itch launcher. It has many nice benefits for the user.

Programs get updates so you don’t end up playing on an old version. It handles running Windows games under Linux. It will also handle sandboxing apps in the future to make it less risky to run random programs. If the game is uploaded via the butler utility made by itch user only have to download the difference between version and not everything from scratch.

Sadly i haven’t found a resource how to make the itch launcher recognise a game. You can try to add a manifest file like it is described here.
