| Steam disclosure | AI content disclosed |
| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Partial AI · mixed signals, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure states AI was used for backgrounds, some illustrations, and visual effects, which are in-game assets players see. The developer says these were reviewed and refined, and no AI generates content during play. Only one game released, so no volume pattern; zero reviews a month after release is a mild concern but not enough for high risk. Against: Developer supervision and refinement of AI assets, plus explicit statement that no AI is used during gameplay, suggest real production effort rather than mass production. |
