What other sources say
| Source | Their take |
|---|---|
| Steam disclosure | AI content disclosed |
| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Partial AI · solid production, medium confidenceReasoningThe developer discloses Midjourney imagery for the title screen, intro, and cutscenes, so some shipped visuals are AI-generated. These are limited, supporting parts rather than core gameplay assets. One release in 12 months, 80 reviews at 81% positive, and no volume-release pattern suggest real production effort. Against: Cutscenes and intro are prominent player-facing content, so AI's visible footprint may be larger than 'parts' implies; curator notes add nothing beyond the disclosure. |
