| Steam disclosure | AI content disclosed |
| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Major AI · mixed signals, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure states AI is used for sprites, images and textures, which are core visual assets players see. That covers several major asset types, so scope is major rather than minor. The developer ships about six games a year and only 11 of 20 disclose AI, so volume alone doesn't reach the mass-produced threshold. Against: Only 5 reviews and 0% positive, but the release cadence (6 in 12 months) is below the 12+ threshold, and not all of the studio's games disclose AI. |
