What the developer says
Some early game assets may have been made using AI to speed up game design phase during development. These assets will be replaced once most of the mechanics of the game has been implemented, and we can then focus more in depth of more high quality assets.

| Steam disclosure | AI content disclosed |
| AI judgment deepseek-flash | AI-assisted · AI scope: parts · effort risk: lowReasoningThe disclosure states some early game assets may be AI-made to speed up design, and are intended as temporary placeholders. The game is unreleased, with no volume-release pattern (0 games in the last 12 months). This points to limited AI use in supporting assets, not core content. Against: The game is unreleased, so it's unclear whether the AI assets will actually be replaced; the disclosure is hedged with 'may have been'. |
