It appears on your profile when you pirate games or use emulators while having steam open

It'a a Steamworks API demo, and generally whenever I see someone running it, I think someone's up to illegal stuff. Those who are know very well what I'm talking about.

That is, unless they're an actual developer.

It is common for games that are pirated to run "Spacewar" to launch the game.

Some mods hook into it to run them, like FiveM.
