Anime Gambling Horror Game Ditches Free Steam Demo So It Doesn't Get Ripped Off By AI
Key Points:
- Drunken Goddess Reflux is an anime horror game featuring Russian Roulette gameplay with a demon bartender, where players aim to get the demon drunk to uncover secrets.
- The game was set to release a free demo during Steam Next Fest, but the developers have canceled the public demo release and will instead hold a closed play session for a limited number of participants.
- The cancellation is due to concerns over generative AI potentially producing imitations or replicas of the game’s content and gameplay, which the small development team cannot effectively police.
- Initially, the demo was to include restrictions against streaming or sharing gameplay videos, but enforcing these rules proved impractical given the team’s size.
- The developers apologized for the last-minute change and expressed regret for disappointing fans who anticipated the demo release.
