| Source | Their take |

| Steam disclosure | AI content disclosed |
| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Partial AI · solid production, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure states AI was used only as a base for some 2D images that artists later drew over. That is limited in-game use, not core generation. The game has 661 reviews and a single release, showing real development effort rather than volume output. Against: The disclosure is vague about how many images and how much AI remains in the final art; the developer has only one game, so effort signals are limited. |
