| Steam disclosure | AI content disclosed |
| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Partial AI · solid production, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure states AI was used for portions of code and graphics, including backgrounds and UI, so some shipped assets are AI-generated. The developer has only one game in the last 12 months and 67 reviews, showing no volume-release pattern. Most content types are not disclosed as AI, suggesting limited scope. Against: Backgrounds and UI are visible assets, so AI touches more than store or marketing material; the disclosure is vague about how much. |
