What the developer says
This game contains content made with the help of generative AI tools during development. Every asset was selected, edited and checked by the developer before it went into the game. - Visual art: character portraits, case illustrations, the opening comic, scene art and the store/capsule artwork were created with AI image tools and then curated, retouched and composited by the developer. - Voice-over: the narrator lines (in all six languages) were produced with AI voice synthesis from the developer's script. - Cinematics: animated story sequences are made with AI video tools from developer-prepared keyframes and storyboards. - Text and localization: the story was directed and finalized by the developer, with parts of the text first drafted with AI and then rewritten and edited by the developer; the translations into English, Japanese, Korean, German and French were made with AI translation tools and then edited. No content is generated by AI while the game is running.

| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Major AI · mixed signals, high confidenceReasoningThe disclosure lists AI generation across several major asset types: visual art, voice-over, cinematics, and text/localization. The developer states all assets were curated, retouched, and edited, indicating real production effort. No live AI generation occurs during play, and the studio has only one game, so volume signals are absent. Against: Developer claims every asset was selected, edited and checked, and story was directed and finalized by a person; only one game released, no mass-release pattern. |
