What the developer says
As a small indie team, we may use procedural and/or AI-based tools to assist with the development process. In all such cases, the final product reflects the creativity and expression of our own development team.

| Source | Their take |

| Steam disclosure | AI content disclosed |
| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Minor AI · solid production, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure is vague, mentioning possible procedural or AI tools without naming any asset type players see. The studio has only three games, all disclosing AI, but released none in the past year. A 48-review, 79%-positive release suggests a real, finished product rather than volume output. Against: All three of the studio's games disclose AI, and the wording is generic enough that some in-game assets could be AI-assisted; the scope may be larger than minor. |
