Selling a game ?

[MikkelWesth1]

Hello guys so I have a question I need to ask you and Im not trying to be rude to Leadwerks thats not my intention. If I want to sell my game on steam is it then possible to create and convert the game so that I can sell it on steam without having to pay 20% of the money i get from selling the game to Leadwerks legally ? Thanks

Currently I am reading the tutorial on how to use Leadwerks and this is what I found : https://www.leadwerks.com/learn?page=Tutorials_Editor_Workshop

 

Under the 6th image in the tutorial it says : 

Leadwerks Software will review and may make your item available for purchase.  You will receive 50% of sales of your item directly from Valve each month via wire transfer.  Valve will keep 30% of each sale, and 20% will go to Leadwerks Software.  A $100 minimum balance is required to initiate a payment.  If this amount if not met in a month, it will carry over until it is reached.

 

So I'm a bit confused about how to sell my game and how much of the outcast I get if I sold my game

Fun fact I actually don't have created a game yet I'm just curious.

Btw if i want to sell my game without having it on the Leadwerks Game Launcher could i then export it as a standalone game and then try to sell it on steam ?

and thanks for your answere ;-)

As far as I am aware, you're reading about selling assets for people to download and use in their own projects.

If you're thinking about releasing a game you should also check out https://itch.io/

This is for workshop assets not for games. And you can't sell games on Game Launcher.

Okay. Yea, that only applies for games you publish on LE Game Launcher. You don't have to publish your game on the Game Launcher.

You have the option to create a standalone version of your game from Leadwerks Editor.

Ok so if I create a standalone version of the game in theory it is possible to sell the game on steam ?
