What the developer says
AI tools were used during development as a creative support tool. They were primarily used for early graphical sketches and for code-related assistance such as debugging, helping me efficiently combine drawing, coding, composing, and story writing as a solo developer. No AI-generated content is used directly in the final game. All assets, code, music, and narrative content were created, refined, and implemented manually. The use of AI was purely supportive and inspirational, serving as a catalyst for creativity rather than a source of finished content. Transparency in the development process is important to me, which is why I am openly disclosing this here.

| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Minor AI · solid production, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure states AI served as a support tool for sketches and debugging, and that all shipped assets, code, music and writing were made manually. No curator notes or other signals allege AI content in the game. Solo developer with one release and a small but positive review count shows no volume-release pattern. Against: The disclosure is self-reported and cannot be independently verified; early AI sketches could have influenced final art. |
