During the late 2000s and early 2010s, customized desktop organization applications like ObjectDock, RocketDock, and RK Launcher were highly popular. Standard executable (.exe) icons provided by game developers often looked pixelated or out of place when scaled up on high-resolution screens. Icon packs like Game Icons XI provided circular or square template graphics that gave the entire digital game library a sleek, cohesive, and modern look.
