What the developer says
We utilized AI tools to generate internal references for composition and framing. These outputs were then used as a base to manually create handcrafted pixel art assets, ensuring all final in-game visuals follow our custom palettes and artistic standards.

| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Minor AI · solid production, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure states AI outputs were references only, with final visuals manually created. No AI-generated content ships to players. Release cadence is modest and reviews are positive, showing no volume-release pattern. Against: Only 5 of 25 games disclose AI, so disclosure habits are inconsistent; the claim that AI never reaches the final build rests on the developer's own wording. |
