This could be a "solution" for testing and running on your own PC.

Writing a Batch-File. Putting your files or what you want, to the Batch, and the Batch writes the parameters (in this example only the first %1) in a file. And when starting your AppGameKit executable, you could open that file and read the parameter.

Batch:


I know, this could cause demage, if not used carefully.

for cross platform, make a chain loader that feeds the next by placing args in a control file.
The initial loader could be made in xyz dev tool, so you don't need to ship another "huge" player just to chain.
