What the developer says
We use artificial intelligence to generate some images in the game, focusing on environmental elements that enhance the atmosphere and immersive feel. Other visual assets were created through traditional methods to preserve artistic consistency. Our goal is to maintain a balance between AI-generated content and hand-crafted assets, ensuring that each part of the visual experience aligns cohesively with the game’s dark, mysterious atmosphere and narrative themes. No AI is used for real-time gameplay elements, and all character interactions and core gameplay were developed manually.

| Steam disclosure | AI content disclosed |
| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Partial AI · mixed signals, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure states AI generates some environmental images while other visual assets are hand-crafted. No real-time gameplay or character content is AI-made, so AI covers only part of the art. The developer has one game and no review history, so volume signals are absent. Against: Zero reviews 23 months after release and a single release could suggest limited testing, but there is no evidence of mass production or AI covering most asset types. |
