Quoting what I have mentioned from another WIP:
Hi
In terms of hosting: Quoting what dashingdon have said:
On another topic
As per Fair Use laws, fanfiction is allowed on dashingdon.com as long as you don’t attempt to profit from it and as long as it does not violate the ChoiceScript terms of service.
Additional things to note
On another topic
(Also always be sure that the work/franchise that you’re creating fanfiction/fan games from has not explicitly disallowed fanfiction or derivative works. Writers such as Anne Rice, G.R.R Martin, and others have explicitly requested that derivative works not be made of their material in order to protect their copyrights, etc. Especially in the US, doing your research is good to avoid injunctions or legal action!)
And finally quoting RE Towers
Fanfiction Games off-site hosting?
Check the license . (As mentioned by Cecilia). (Also it’s included in any download from GitHub).
I’m not a lawyer and don’t work for CoG, but the short answer is that the license allows for free, non-commercial usage of CS, entirely at your own risk .
What is your end goal for this? I’m not a lawyer unfortunately so my general advice is if you have doubts, consult the original creators. I would suggest emailing them and get their permission in regards to your plan.
