| Steam disclosure | AI content disclosed |
| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Partial AI · solid production, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure lists AI for 2D UI icons that ship in-game, so scope is parts rather than none. Coding assistance and external promo art are supporting uses. The developer has a long release history with only one AI-disclosing title and a large, well-reviewed game, so no volume or low-effort pattern. Against: The curator note repeats the store disclosure rather than adding independent evidence; most assets and design appear conventionally developed. |
