What the developer says
We want to be transparent about our use of AI: AI is used for: assisting with code development (debugging, refactoring, technical guidance during programming sessions). AI is NOT used for: the story, the dialogue, the music, the illustrations, the character designs, or any creative content. A Piano Tale is a deeply personal project, and its soul comes entirely from human hands.

| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Minor AI · solid production, high confidenceReasoningThe disclosure limits AI to coding assistance, not shipped creative assets. A Steam curator also notes gen AI for code, consistent with that. Only one release in 12 months and a small, personal project, so no volume-release pattern. Against: Only 2 reviews at 50% positive, but that reflects reception, not AI content scope. |
