What the developer says
"Statement on Game Development Process: During the early conceptual design and creative ideation phase of this game, we utilized AI technology as a supplementary tool to help us explore and validate various artistic styles and creative directions more efficiently. These AI-generated reference materials provided us with initial inspiration. However, the core creative concepts, story writing, character design, and all final art assets presented in the game were personally conceived and carefully crafted by our creative team. Each game element has undergone multiple rounds of manual optimization and fine-tuning to ensure the best gaming experience. AI was used solely as an assistive tool, while the final game content is the result of human craftsmanship. We remain committed to human-driven creation as our primary approach, dedicated to delivering a unique and meticulously polished gaming experience to our players."

| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Minor AI · solid production, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure limits AI to conceptual reference material, not shipped assets, so scope stays minor. The game has 40 reviews at 95% positive and the developer released only 2 games in 12 months, showing no volume-release pattern. Most of their catalog discloses AI, but that alone doesn't raise effort risk here. Against: The developer discloses AI on 18 of 20 games, suggesting routine AI use, though this title's disclosure describes only pre-production references. |
