XDG is not a Debian thing. Just ship the upstream one or send upstream one if you want to target systems without menu-xdg. Run desktop-file-validate over it first though to make sure it is valid. Here is the standards doc if you need to write one. http://standards.freedesktop.org/desktop-entry-spec/desktop-entry-spec-latest.html > 2) Is it acceptable to create a .desktop file for the game, or more > appropriately, is it acceptable to create a shell script in /usr/games/ > that can execute the Mari0 game with a single command?

I wonder if you can just ship the .love file as /usr/games/mari0 and with an interpreter line of #!/usr/bin/love-0.8 - no shell involved?
