Digital Sun delays ReVamp public playtest over AI cloning concerns

Digital Sun Games has scrapped the planned public playtest for ReVamp and will instead run a more contained test on its Discord server starting October 29. The studio said it feared the game could be reverse-engineered, cloned, and published before launch, which is still months away. The piece also notes that Alliance Arts and Who's You canceled the Steam Next Fest demo for Drunken Goddess Reflux, and ties the trend to limited copyright protection for game mechanics and advances in LLM tools.
