What the developer says
Our game uses GenAI at run time in our game engine to power various gameplay mechanics so that the game can respond to whatever players say and do in the moment. We're excited to build on both known game dev tools and also develop new capabilities, all to be able to build games that are more improvisational and responsive to player creativity and agency. We did not use AI generation for any of our art assets, nor for the NPC customer motivations, personalities, or quests.
