| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Partial AI · mixed signals, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure covers in-game images and translations, so some shipped assets are AI-made. The developer released 4 games in 12 months, below the 12+ threshold for high effort risk. Only 2 reviews long after release is a weak signal, not enough for high. Against: Images were edited by a human, and the release cadence is not extreme; the game has few reviews but is a niche visual novel. |
