Hi everybody
I got two spare codes that I have and I wonder if I could post them in my thread "demos for everyone(http://forums.gamesalad.com/discussion/57450/demos-for-everyone#latest)
I made them to learn more about gamesalad. The problem is that is out as templates on gshelper.com
The two games is a fully funcitnal "4pics1word" and a trivia game(but in the trivia game you need to add you own timer and so on) But my question is. Can I post these two. It's already at the market as template but it's still okey like a nice gesture?
AND NO!!! This question is not only for @uptimistik and @Braydon_SFX. And I have not bought their templates and trying to steal them. I've done them myself

No, Like I said. I haven't bought any if the templates, so I don't have them.
Yes, it should be fine, people give free demos all the time, TSHIRTBOOTH gave free demos all the time.
However in doing so you would be affecting the business of those who work at GShelper.com
And there is a lot of people associated with them. And don't expect them to be happy with you.
In my opinion there shouldn't be anything stopping you from doing this, as long as its your own code and haven't copied and sections, they don't own it, they copied off another game and choose to sell it as a template. They could have given it away free but they are a business.
It comes down to your morals in terms of business. (If they still have any these days) but it would be recommended to talk to the members at GShelper.com and just communicate your intentions.
They may, chances are slim,not worry too much about it since there are different ones popping up for sale everywhere. So GShelper properly isn't your only concern.
I don't think there is anything stopping you from doing and I don't think anyone can stop you, just be prepared for the affects that come away giving away something free that others charge.
Again this just may opinion, I don't sell templates so I don't know if doing this affects the sales ect.
Cheers
Thanks for you opinion
I will contact them over at gshelper.com and see what they think...
If it's your work you have absolutely no reason to ask GShelper anything.
You can do what the hell you like with it!
It’s not a bug – it’s an undocumented feature

I've made it even better now:)
I'm sure there are many other point and click adventure templates available both free and for sale out there. So stormy studios, GSHelpers and DeepBlue Apps are probably not the only ones.
