Just updating the launcher binary will not work in the future. An installation package approach is more advisable.

Possible solutions:

  • Inno Setup on Windows
  • .deb package on Linux
  • .app package on Mac
  • Custom solution using the same Manifest-Server model as the game installation

The current plan is to have a full binary build of launchpad in launcher/bin and simply download the entire thing if the launcher version changes - the total size is somewhere in the vicinity of 2kb, which is not a lot :P
