What the developer says
Some art assets, mainly the store page, have been originally created with the use of image generation AI. Which then have gone through manual editing to apply enhancements and branding such as logos or text. Masking and cleanup have also been applied by hand to remove unwanted elements and/or apply the required dimension changes. The reason for the usage of image generation AI for art assets are the following: - Cut the team cost for art commissions. Art is a minimal focus of this game. - Accurately portray the main artistic vision for the game, which in this case is minimalism. Image generation has helped to reach this goal of art assets reflecting the artistic nuances the game aims for the player to "feel".

| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Minor AI · solid production, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure limits AI to art assets, primarily store page imagery, with manual editing and cleanup applied. Art is described as a minimal focus, and the game is not yet released. No signs of low-effort volume releases: zero games in the last 12 months. Against: The disclosure mentions 'some art assets' beyond the store page, so a small amount of in-game art could be AI-derived, but the stated scope stays minor. |
