The big risk was calling it a demo. Peoples impressions can be tough to shake, and alot of people wont read the fine print, just play the demo and go "is this going to be a flash game... this is all they have done!? This still doesnt tell me anything about the game! Im mad and complaining!!!"
And of course no matter what engine they decide to use rumors will long persist that theyr using html5.

If you release a prototype at this stage it needs to look near-perfect, which isnt realistic. So i think they may have to explicity re-brand the demo as "proof of concept" and "interactive sketches" (which theyv said but need to say louder) and never call it a demo. Because i think theres a very significant amount of people out there that arent going to connect the dots.
