What the developer says
Some of the marketing and store page assets for Iron Defect (including capsule images and promotional artwork) were created with the assistance of generative AI tools during early development. These assets are used as placeholder artwork while the game is in development and will be replaced with original artwork as development progresses. No generative AI is used within the game itself. All gameplay content, mechanics, code and design are created entirely by the developer.

The developer says these are placeholders to be replaced with original art. No volume-release pattern: zero games in the last 12 months and the game is unreleased. Against: The game is unreleased, so the claim that no AI is used in-game cannot yet be verified against shipped content. |
