What the developer says
This game used generative AI as an assistive tool during development to expand the scope of content production and improve workflow efficiency. The specific areas of use are as follows: Art: AI was used to create most of the background images that establish the game’s historical atmosphere, to enhance the quality of the main character concept art, to create extra character images, and to produce UI icons. All AI-generated visual assets were retouched and edited by artists to match the game’s direction and visual tone. Text and Localization: AI was used to draft large volumes of newspaper articles, public reactions, and text used in minigames. AI was also used to assist with proofreading, context checking, and drafting or reviewing some localized text. All AI-generated or AI-assisted results were reviewed, edited, and adjusted directly by the development team before being used in the game.

| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Major AI · mixed signals, high confidenceReasoningThe disclosure states AI made most background images plus extra character art and UI icons, and drafted large volumes of in-game text. That covers several major asset types, so scope is major. Only one game in 12 months and human retouching/review point to real effort, not volume release. Against: All AI assets were retouched and reviewed by artists and the team; only one release, so no mass-production pattern. |
