| Steam disclosure | AI content disclosed |
| AI judgment deepseek-flash | AI-assisted · AI scope: parts · effort risk: mediumReasoningThe developer discloses AI-generated pre-rendered video sequences, a visible but limited part of the game. No evidence of AI in other asset types, and the studio's release pace is modest. Zero reviews long after release is a mild concern but not enough for high effort risk. Against: The game has no reviews about a year after release, and 3 of the studio's 5 games disclose AI, which could hint at heavier reliance than this single disclosure shows. |
