| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Partial AI · solid production, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure states AI was used for UI art, dialogue/quest ideas, and music, so some shipped assets are AI-generated. The game is a full survival/crafting title with human-developed systems, suggesting real effort. The developer has only two games and no rapid release pattern. Against: Music and UI art are player-facing asset types, and the game is unreleased with no reviews to gauge scope. |
