OK, I found this cool thing that was this game maker file of this guy running through a 3D forest that was for tutorial purposes, and I edited it to make it flying, changed everything, added Mr. Saturns and clouds. I also added music and, well, even though I know it's hardly MY game (I never wrote the script and, basically, the whole basic game engine), I was wondering if I could upload my version or if that is not allowed. I'm not taking credit for it, and I don't even know who did it...

Well as long as you don't take credit for what isn't yours.

Plus you say it was out there just for tutorial purposes, so you're alright. You can just say "Hey, this is a tutorial that someone made of so-and-so I tweaked."

    Well actually, I'm not sure if you even have to take credit. Are you using the program GameMaker? I remember seeing something in a GameMaker manual somewhere that you do not have to give credit to them for any sprites, background, etc.

    So I guess you could give credit to be on the safe side, but I'm fairly certain that you don't have to if it's GameMaker.
