Artificial intelligence tools were used during the development of this game. These AI-assisted tools were used to create some of the artwork, for voice synthesis in the narrative audio, and to assist with programming during development. No AI generates content or code in real time during gameplay.

What other sources say
| Source | Their take |
|---|---|
| Steam disclosure | AI content disclosed |
| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Partial AI · solid production, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure states AI helped with some artwork, voice synthesis, and programming, so AI content ships to players but does not dominate. The developer has one release in the past year, and the game has 12 positive reviews, showing no volume-release pattern. The curator note adds nothing beyond the disclosure. Against: The disclosure limits AI to supporting roles and says no content is generated during gameplay; the single release and positive reviews point to a normal production effort. |
