"Tiny Bunny: Prologue" is not a game. It's an advertisement for a product called "Tiny Bunny". Tiny Bunny is not even a game, it's a garbage Ren'Py kitbashed E-book, basically a high school fanfiction from someone unable to get published in print so they had to pay $100 to put their book on Steam Direct as if it's a game (books are not games). An e-book that isn't even finished (and might never be).

But this isn't completely relevant because this is not Tiny Bunny, it's just an advertisment for it, so it's not correct to try to review that completely distinct product. We must instead review this for what it is... an advertisement. If you enjoy advertisements, you can consume them for free on the web or on Youtube without needing to add them to your game library, download them, and then launch the advertising. It's impossible in a general sense to recommend people should do that over playing real, full games on Steam, and that applies here with "Tiny Bunny: Prologue" too.

This is only "free" in the same way that adverts on Youtube and banner ads in your browser are. This is a game demo that's been dumped on Steam to advertise another Steam store page in the hopes of raking in some cash. Just because advertisements are free, doesn't mean they're worth your time.

I use the term "free" really loosely here (just like the "author"). Even this advertisement isn't free as you're expected to pay $2 USD to buy the soundtrack. The soundtrack for the whole e-book? Haha, no no, you don't understand, the soundtrack for the full e-book costs $4! $2 only buys you the soundtrack for the advertisement.

That's right, this is a non-free advertisement for an incomplete book. On Steam, which is for PC games. At some point we have to draw a line... this might as well be a web page. Why is this on Steam?

Anyway, back to why it's bad when developers deliberately fail to follow the correct process for launching a demo. It's important to understand there's a formal process to create a demo/page for a game which hasn't been followed here:

While it might seem like an inocuous mistake, publishing demos and advertisements as if they are full games is misleading and in some ways harmful. This advertisement is taking up marketing space and visibility that would be better made available to a developer that's done the right thing and created a full game. Instead, that visibility is given over to a demo/advert that's been published incorrectly and is polluting the marketplace.

It's unclear if this mistake was made through incompetence or a deliberate intent to mislead gamers. Often developers may choose to incorrectly publish demo/advertisements as separate games as a cheap way to bypass paying Valve for marketing presence on the Steam front page, which may seem clever to them, but it's harmful behaviour and it's not good for gamers.

Advertisements and incorrectly published demos don't add +1 to your game collector count, they aren't full games. It's impossible for me to recommend this incorrectly published advertising spam to gamers, you deserve better than adverts.
