What the developer says
I enjoy crafting dozens of background images in the game, from personal travel photos of varied scenery, drawings, and patiently process and mash them using AI and non AI tools. The art for the board games themselves (pawns, tiles) is abstract and simply done with gimp (traditional 2D image editor)

| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Partial AI · mixed signals, medium confidenceReasoningThe developer discloses using AI and non-AI tools to process background scenery images, which players see. Pawns and tiles are stated as hand-made in a traditional editor. Only one game released, so no volume-release pattern. Against: Developer describes personal photos and drawings as source material and hand-made abstract pieces, suggesting real involvement; zero reviews long after release is a weak signal given the niche board-game genre. |
