What the developer says
This game utilizes generative AI in a supplementary role to create and modify some of the image assets. Our use of generative AI includes: Creation from scratch: An image of a digital scale. Editing and processing of original/stock photos: A stylized illustration of the motorcycle used in the game's logo. Images of a fictional map book titled "Touring Mapping". Weather effects (such as adding rain) to some of the background images. The core of this game—the actual photos taken by the developer in 2007—are not generated by AI.

| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Partial AI · solid production, high confidenceReasoningThe disclosure states AI was used for limited, supplementary image assets while the core photographic content is the developer's own. The developer has released no games in the last 12 months, so there is no volume-release signal. The game is unreleased with no review history to suggest low effort. Against: The developer's only two games both disclose AI use, but with no release cadence this does not indicate mass production. |
