What the developer says
Some small visuals were made using AI completely trained on my own art, since I am a solo developer, it tremendously helped the tedious tasks of icon generation and few other visuals here and there.

| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Minor AI · mixed signals, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure limits AI to small visuals like icons and a few other assets, not core art. The developer is solo with one release in the past year, showing no volume-release pattern. Zero reviews three months after launch is a weak signal but not enough for high effort risk. Against: No reviews three months after release could indicate low visibility or low effort, but there is no evidence of mass production. |
