Is there any way to add Start menu shortcuts for my non-steam games? (lemmy.ml)

Edit: Solved!

Bit of a weird question, but yeah.

I like to have the games I'm currently cycling through favorited in my start menu since i keep the majority of my desktop icon free save for my file manager and trash bin. Thing is, right now I'm playing through both Daggerfall Unity and my GoG version of Pillars of Eternity (installed using the offline installers and WINE. Using Heroic resulted in it not launching because it couldn't find the Data folder for whatever reason) which were both added as Non Steam games. Is there any way to add shortcuts for them to my Start menu, or am i just gonna have to suck it up and make them Desktop shortcuts?

(Using KDE on EndeavourOS, if it matters at all)

If you have Lutris, then you can add your games in it, and then add shortcuts using Lutris
