| Steam disclosure | AI content disclosed |
| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Minor AI · solid production, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure limits AI to a few art references and images, not shipped core assets. The developer has one recent release with 153 reviews and 84% positive, showing real production effort. A curator repeats the same limited claim without adding evidence. Against: The disclosure is vague about whether the AI images ship to players, and the curator note suggests AI visuals, which could push scope slightly higher. |
