I'm an indie developer looking to get a free demo of my game online. My game is written in Java, and is in a Jar file format. Does Desura take Java Jar files, or does it only take C++ and XNA and such? If Desura does not take Jar files as valid game files, is there another site that does?

It takes jars. When I submitted Flack, I uploaded 3 types: .exe for pc, .jar for mac, and .bz (compressed jar) for linux. I could have submitted just the .jar for each platform, but they prefer those formats.
