Sell my creations

I have read the license, but still cannot understand this. Am I allowed to sell a game that I make on scratch? Providing I only use my own creations in the project, and turn it into a .exe file?

I don't think so, unless you give credit to MIT  hmm

I believe you are allowed to do so.

Re: Sell my creations

You are allowed to sell your projects that you create on scratch as long as it has not been uploaded to the scratch website. Once it has been uploaded, it belongs to the community.

Re: Sell my creations

I thought it was legal, but it would at least be the right thing to do to give the Lifelong Kindergarten Group some credit in your sold creations, which I wouldn't recommend selling unless you copyright them, because them someone else could take it and say it's theirs and make more money than you off of it, and I've looked into it, and copyrighting a Scratch project isn't worth it. It would be better for you to just let people play it for free and go make a lemonade stand outside for the money.
