:Minecraft's alpha build is considered Steve's technical debut, and that's not too dissimilar from a demo. Perhaps this should get the same treatment?

:::This was still a publicly released piece of software with a known release date. It absolutely marks Cloud's first appearance in a video game. Minecraft's alpha build is listed as Steve's technical debut, while the official release is his proper debut. This demo should be mentioned in the same way on Cloud's page for the sake of documentation.
