What the developer says
Some NPC portraits and player character face options in Starminer were created with the assistance of generative AI image tools during development. Generative AI was also used to help generate some informational dialogue, help texts, and tooltips. All AI-generated assets and text were reviewed, curated, and edited by our team before being integrated into the final build. No generative AI is used at runtime. All content shipped in the game is static and pre-authored.

| AI judgment deepseek-flash | AI-assisted · AI scope: parts · effort risk: lowReasoningDisclosure states AI image tools made some portraits and face options, and AI helped generate some dialogue, help texts, and tooltips. These are limited, supporting parts of the game, with no runtime generation. Strong review volume and a single release indicate real development effort. Against: Developer has only one game and one disclosure, so no volume-release pattern; 1860 reviews suggest substantial player engagement. |
