What the developer says
We would like to clarify that some of the artistic assets used in our game were created with the assistance of artificial intelligence (AI) tools. These elements were carefully selected and refined by our team to ensure they align with the visual identity and experience we aim to deliver to players. Our goal in using AI was to complement our creative process and bring an innovative approach to the game's visuals, always under the artistic supervision of our team to maintain consistency and product quality

| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Partial AI · mixed signals, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure states some artistic assets were AI-created and refined by the team, so AI ships to players but is not the whole game. Developer has only two games, no rapid release pattern, and no reviews yet. Curator note only repeats the disclosure. Against: Disclosure says AI was used to complement the creative process under artistic supervision, suggesting limited scope rather than wholesale generation. |
