CloseHello, RPG Maker users and staff,
I'm about to close my first game demo, version 1.0, and I'd like to share it with my friends and RPG Maker public.
While I still don't know if the game will be free or commercial, I'm sure about the fact that the demo will be free.
Here are my questions!
How am I allowed to share contents?
Can I just use the "Compress Game Data..." function and share the output with my friends through (for instance) email, USB or other means?
Can I upload contents through sharing sites (or on a server) and allow people to download them?
How can I proceed to submit my project here on rpgmaker.net? Could I publish a free demo of a (possible) commercial game?
Can someone link me to RPG Maker publishing official policies?
Thanks a lot for your help!
Edit
in particular, with "registration" they mean the registration of the product (or the activation through product key and email), right?
Here's the part of the EULA:
D. User registration Licensee shall promptly sign up and register required information as a user of the Software. Licensor will provide support, via on-line basis and only the scope designated by Licensor, to the Licensee who completed the registration process in accordance with Licensor’s direction. Such support shall be provided on “as-is” basis without any warranty in any manner.

At the top of RMN is a submission button.
Submit Game:
You need to write at least 500 words describing the game
and provide at least 3 screen shots.
You can submit a game profile here! The full submission rules are here: http://rpgmaker.net/submission_rules/
but in a nutshell: commercial game profiles are allowed, but any game download you submit must be free to play (no cost, no microtransactions, no ingame ads, no subscription needed). You must also flag the game profile as Commercial (there is a checkbox).
I am not sure about the specifics of selling games made in RPG Maker though! I haven't done that yet myself.

Thank you both!
The main doubt on rpgmaker.net publishing is now answered.
I have some EULA questions, which I sent to RPG Maker staff and posted in this thread:
http://rpgmaker.net/forums/topics/14053/
If any of you can give me some feedback, I greatly appreciate it!

I believe Enterbrain allows it I know I read somewhere that they do.
Though if they used non-commercial scripts/sprites/etc. then thats another story.
