| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Partial AI · solid production, medium confidenceReasoningThe store disclosure states AI generated voiceover, so some shipped audio is AI. Other asset types (art, writing, design) show no AI indication. The developer has released only one game, with 16 reviews, so there is no sign of volume production. Against: Voiceover is a supporting element, and the game has a full roguelike RTS design with base building and exploration, suggesting substantial human development. |
