Moonlighter studio won't host a public playtest of its next game due to rampant AI-led cloning: 'We know we're not the only developers feeling this way'
Digital Sun Games, the studio behind Moonlighter, has canceled public playtests for its upcoming game ReVamp due to fears of AI-driven cloning and reverse-engineering. The studio cited a surge in rapidly produced clones on platforms like Steam and Roblox, exacerbated by recent AI advancements, as the reason for the increased risk. This decision reflects a growing concern within the indie development community about intellectual property theft.
