WME license allows you to sell your game without paying anything.

You should still consider donating. Wintermute is really good software and Im sure a lot of time went into making it.

Hello there,
We are also working on a game which we have considered selling. The platforms for distribution that is worth consideration is digital distribution sites / services such as Steam, Direct2Drive and so on. On most of these websites there is a link called something like "developer info" or "developer contact". Click these and read carefully.

Thing is though, that most of these services does not allow any game to be sold. You will probably have to send in your game for valuation and after that, they decide whether to sell the game or not. However, it does never harm to try, and to send an email.

Also consider selling at an own website using paypal or something similar. Do not forget marketing though, and take contact with as many indie game blogs and review sites as possible.

Good luck!
