Steam Week in Review: Steam Next Fest has over 8,000 demos, as worthless vibe coded slop levels up
We are drowning in shit. Steam Next Fest, which kicks off tomorrow, currently has 8,011 matches on its press preview landing page.
AI Summary
Steam Next Fest begins tomorrow with 8,011 demos listed on its press‑preview landing page, roughly twice the number featured in the June 2026 edition. The June 2022 festival had just over a thousand demos, highlighting the rapid growth in the event’s catalogue. The article warns that the majority of the new demos are “meritless slop,” and suggests many may not have existed as concepts before October, though it offers no verification.
