Moonlighter developer delays playtest fearing AI clones

Digital Sun, the Spanish indie studio behind Moonlighter and Cataclismo, has delayed a planned Steam playtest for its upcoming game ReVamp, a self-described "Tower Defensevania". The studio says it is holding back the public test over fears that AI-assisted copycats could clone the game's concept before it officially launches. The decision highlights growing anxiety among smaller developers that generative AI lets imitators reproduce original ideas faster than ever.
Why now: Indie developers and players are debating how generative AI makes it easy to clone original game concepts before they launch.
