Question about Releasing Projects.

     Hello!  I'm new to the community and have a question.  If I were to use entirely original assets on a project made in the engine, would I be able to release that project on places like Steam?  This seems like a good engine to make an old school style fighting game in, but I wanted to ask to be safe.

On MUGEN? No.

On IKEMEN? As long as EVERYTHING you do is originally yours, then I believe so, yes.

Sure!  It's really only in concept, but I plan on having it be about Greek Mythology.  It's slowly but surely coming together, and I've started making some sprites for it along with a basic plan for the features.

Like 087-B said, surely not with MUGEN engine.
Maybe with IKEMEN as it is on a MIT licence.
Best things to do :
1. Make sure to read and get a general understanding of Policy, Terms of use, License etc.
Check those txt files that come with the engine and/or on the official release website.
Same for steam /any other plateform that might interest you.
2. Check some fighting game indie creators/developpers. Many of them are active on Twitter. Get their vision/feedback.
Game names that come to my mind : Schwartzerblitz. Cronus chroma. A demon's day.
(Have you thought of itch.io?)

Good luck on your project. It sounds promising!!
