This is what has plagued my mind from time to time during production.
Say I had the game about done, and I wanted to put up the download.
How on this lovely earth would I do just that?
Any answer would be appreciated! Well, Excluding ones that don't help me in any way with this specific problem.

Try Manage Games -> Mario and the War Factories -> Downloads -> Add Download.

Perhaps I should rephrase the question.
What should the file format be? Or does it not matter?
Should I just Cram everything into a folder then upload the folder or is there some special process I'd have to go through?

No, don't try to upload a folder.

Instead, you need to archive that folder in one of 3 formats: zip, rar or 7z.

You can use WinRar to archive to a rar file (choosing Best compression to make the rar file as small as possible)

WinRar is not freeware, but it comes with a trial that really has no limits to it. I guess you can call it nagware.

You can download WinRar here:

Or you can use 7-Zip to archive to a 7z file (again choosing either Maximum or Ultra compression to make the 7z file as small as possible)

Unlike WinRar, 7-Zip is freeware. You can find it here:
http://www.7-zip.org/

Both programs can also produce zip files; recent versions of Windows can also create zip files.

Here's how to do it with Windows:
Right-click the folder, point to Send To, and then click Compressed (zipped) Folder.
