What the developer says
This game is adapted from an original short story written and owned by the developer. The story and all narrative content are original creative works with no AI-generated writing. The English script was produced with Claude's assistance to adapt the setting and dialogue style to small-town Ohio. Visual assets were generated using Seedance 2.0. Game code is built on Nova, an open-source visual novel framework, and is not AI-generated.

| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Partial AI · solid production, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure states visual assets were AI-generated, so some in-game art is AI. Writing is original with Claude used only for adaptation, and code uses a non-AI framework. Only one release in 12 months and modest review count don't indicate volume production. Against: Developer has only one release in the past year and a small catalog, and the narrative is declared original, pointing to limited rather than heavy AI use. |
