What the developer says
The background of our logo is generated by AI. As a solo developer I've been 100% focused on gameplay and have not had the time or resources to work with an artist for marketing and social materials. Hopefully as we grow our community during Early Access we can find a few artists that are passionate about creating personalized content that best represent Nova. Nothing in-game is generated by AI.

| Steam disclosure | AI content disclosed |
| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Minor AI · solid production, high confidenceReasoningThe disclosure limits AI to a logo background, a store/marketing asset, so scope is minor. The developer states no in-game content is AI-generated. Only one game released, so no volume-release pattern; low review count alone doesn't raise effort risk. Against: Only 1 review 17 months after release, which could suggest low engagement, but there is no evidence of mass production or in-game AI content. |
