        That’s because it’s not a product. It’s an experiment for figuring out what they as a studio might be able to do with something new and untested. This is a trial run of a new engine, and they simply decided to publish the result for others to see.

        This is more like publishing research findings than trying to market and sell something for a profit. Whether the result is good or bad, it’s informative either way.
