| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Minor AI · solid production, high confidenceReasoningThe disclosure covers only some soundtrack tracks, a supporting asset type, with significant manual work stated. The game has 53 reviews at 98% positive and the developer released one game in the past year, showing no volume-release pattern. Against: Music is a player-facing asset, so AI involvement is not purely marketing; the developer's single release limits evidence of sustained effort. |
