What the developer says
Our game utilizes AI-generated assets specifically for the game's store page to enhance the quality and visual appeal of promotional materials. These assets include: 1. AI-Generated Artwork: Certain visual elements, such as promotional banners, thumbnails, or concept art displayed on the store page, were created using AI tools. These tools were used to generate high-quality, detailed, and engaging visuals to better represent the game's theme and aesthetic. 2. AI-Assisted Text: Some descriptions, taglines, or other written content on the store page were refined or generated with the help of AI language models to ensure clarity, creativity, and professionalism. Transparency and Ethical Use: The use of AI-generated assets is limited to non-interactive, promotional materials and does not impact the in-game content or player experience. All AI-generated assets were reviewed and curated by our development team to ensure they accurately reflect the game's design and do not mislead players. This survey response outlines our commitment to transparency regarding the use of AI in creating store page assets and ensuring compliance with Steamworks and Valve guidelines.
