| Steam disclosure | AI content disclosed |
| AI judgment deepseek-flash | AI-assisted · AI scope: minor · effort risk: mediumReasoningThe disclosure limits AI to placeholder images, which are temporary or supporting assets rather than shipped core content. The game shows genre-specific design signals (roguelike, bullet hell) suggesting real development. Zero reviews four months after release is a weak signal, but the studio has only one release, so volume-based risk doesn't apply. Against: Placeholders could remain in the shipped build, and with no reviews there's no player confirmation of final art quality or scope. |
