| Source | Their take |
|---|---|
| Steam disclosure | AI content disclosed |
| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Partial AI · solid production, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure states AI helped with some non-essential illustrations, which players see, so scope is parts. The developer says core assets were manual, and only one game shipped in the last year, so no volume-release signal. A curator also alleges AI visuals, but that adds little beyond the disclosure. Against: The developer claims all core game assets were manually created, and the AI use is limited to non-essential illustrations. |
