But then the cases cannot be promoted? That makes no sense, I'm sorry. I think the cases should be promoted anyway, with a warning that the case is available on a certain language. It's not fair to international users if their cases can't be promoted because they are not in English.

All sections have a forum where AAO cases can be promoted.
GW is meant for showcasing AA fan games and engines in general. So it's an additional commodity with a possibly wider audience, but don't make it sound like non English-speaking people will die from not being able to use it...

Next, GW is not AAO, it's a separate site. GW was not international before I took over it, and I consider I do not have time to spend making it international (as henke said, that would involve installing a separate wiki for each language, reconfiguring everything, etc.).

If people can speak enough English to read an English trial, then they can speak enough English to read GW pages. There would be no benefit to a French speaker if they read a French article about an English trial that they can't play because they can't speak English. :)

First you use the "User" namespace, like this, "User:henke37". This is your main userpage. While it is your page, it is recommended that you stick to stuff like presenting your self and so on. Instead, create a subpage for your misc stuff like this, "User:henke37/Half Baked Cookies". Of course, people can still access that page too, so don't go nuts. It's your area, but not your private area.
