| Steam disclosure | AI content disclosed |
| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Partial AI · solid production, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure states AI was used for pre-rendered character portraits visible in cutscenes, so some in-game assets are AI-generated. The developer has a long Steam history and only one of five games discloses AI, with no rapid release pattern. Limited scope and low release volume point to real development effort. Against: Only 5 reviews at 60% positive 14 months after release, which could suggest limited polish, but there is no evidence of mass production. |
