Maybe a year or so ago I developed an incomplete Mario-themed tower defense game full of guns, blood, and dirty jokes in Game Maker Studio. It's the sequel to a pair of mediocre games I made in earlier versions of Game Maker as a kid, which I released on mfgg.net. It's called NES Zapper 3: Mario's Psychotic Break. It includes an optional joke mode that may offend people with certain political sensibilities, to mock the increasing politicization of modern games. I don't want to post it here if that's going to violate the rule about discussing politics (which I firmly intend to avoid doing on the forum itself) but I thought it might be good to post the game on the internet in some form. It currently exists only on my own hardware; nowhere online. Is it sufficient to warn people of the potentially offensive quasi-political content within the game, or should I avoid posting it here altogether? I like this community and don't want to cause any problems in it, so it seemed like a good idea to check first. I'll refrain from uploading the game until I get a response from someone who knows the answer.
 
I think you are golden because those things are in a game you made and not on a post anyone can read without even registering — which makes a huge difference.

That said, I'd recommend plastering the thread itself with warnings about its content just so anyone going into it already knows what they are in for — if huge media companies can cover their asses with a few words of disclaimer, so should you.

That sounds very reasonable and I'll do so when I upload the game later. Thanks.
 
Well, you didn't even mention what it was so no worries. If a curator posts it, the warnings will be appreciated.
