What the developer says
This game was made by a solo developer aka human being. Some visual and audio assets were built with AI support, then refined, edited and animated by hand. Also, code analysis and debugging (no pun intended) was done with the support of AI.

| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Partial AI · solid production, medium confidenceReasoningThe developer discloses AI support for some visual and audio assets, refined by hand, plus AI-assisted code analysis. That covers only parts of the game, with clear signs of solo manual development. Release pace is one game in 12 months, so no volume signal. Against: A Steam curator says gen AI was used for visuals, audio and code, but gives no specific checkable evidence; the disclosure itself limits AI to supporting roles. |
