What the developer says
"My game leverages Generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies to dynamically create and enhance several aspects of the visual experience. Specifically, I use AI for: Application Icon: The game's icon is generated with AI, offering a unique and engaging visual that reflects the game's theme and atmosphere. Mouse Cursor Replacement: I've designed AI-generated mouse cursors that adapt to different game environments and contexts, providing a seamless and immersive interaction experience. GUI Sprites: Certain elements of the game's graphical user interface (GUI) are created using AI, allowing for a diverse and dynamic presentation that evolves based on gameplay and player choices. I am committed to ensuring that all AI-generated content adheres to Steam's standard store requirements. To this end, I have implemented robust guardrails to prevent the generation of inappropriate or illegal content within my game. I have conducted thorough testing to ensure that the AI behaves as intended, and I continuously monitor and update my AI systems to maintain the highest standards of content integrity and respect for copyright. Furthermore, I encourage our community to report any instances of inappropriate or unexpected AI-generated content through the Steam Overlay's reporting tools. I am dedicated to addressing any such issues promptly to ensure a positive and respectful gaming environment for all players. My use of AI is aimed at enhancing the visual appeal and interactivity of my game, making each player's experience unique and engaging. I believe that this innovative approach to game design will offer players a fresh and dynamic gaming experience."
