| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Partial AI · solid production, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure says most level images began as AI references before manual pixelization and editing, so some shipped in-game art is AI-derived. The developer has one release, no volume pattern, and the game is a small hand-finished puzzle. No evidence of AI in audio, writing, or live gameplay. Against: Final artwork was manually edited and color-limited, and the developer has only one release, which argues against mass production. |
