What the developer says
We’ve used AI technology in a minimal capacity to assist in the creation of the game’s visuals. AI was utilized primarily for generating rough background sketches and concept drafts. All final artwork was hand-drawn to ensure a personal, unique touch and to maintain a distinct artistic style in the game.

| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Minor AI · solid production, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure states AI assisted only early visual drafts, with final art hand-drawn. One release in 12 months and 63 reviews at 74% positive suggest a normal small-project cadence, not volume output. A curator note objects to AI use generally but offers no specific evidence about this game. Against: The curator's note opposes any AI use in creation, even if it doesn't reach the final game, but gives no checkable evidence about this title. |
