Few quick questions about RealArcade

I know there has been lots of talk about RealArcade so I''m sorry to bother you. Anyways... 1. Have they sold many games for you? 2. Do I have to change my game in anyway in order to sell it through them (include a RN logo or anything like that)? 3. Has anybody ever had trouble with them? 4. How much do they charge per sale? I''ve had a look at their terms and they made me quite suspicious. "RealNetworks shall have no responsibility or liability whatsoever to you if RealNetworks chooses to develop or publish a game similar or identical to the game submitted by you, subject to any copyright, trademark or patents rights, if any, you may have in your game." Can they just copy my game straight off? Johan Torp - http://www.destruction.nu

I have never had any problems with them. The reason for that clause is that if they are developing a jetboat game, and you are too, and you submit it to them, they already have one, so will obviosuly say no thanks, but dont want you then sueing them saying they stole your idea (which they didnt) all publishers have a similar clause.
To be honest 99% of a games value is the implementation not the idea, dont worry about it, sign with them, they are a good and reliable publisher

They have at the moment extremely bussy, so you need to wait a couple of months before they will review new submitted games.

So, probarly it will be a though road to walk on.
Thanks for your replies. You did however forget to answer how much they charged. I can''t find it in their documentation.

He probably didn''t mention money because of a NDA (Non-Disclosure Agreement).
Should i ever make a deal with Realarcade i will post how much money they give. My kind of information guerilla.
