What the developer says
We want to be upfront about how AI tools were used during the development of Golden Years. This is a small indie project built mostly by hand, but a few AI assisted elements were used to help speed up production. Where AI Was Used A handful of environmental textures, about five or six total, were created or retextured using AI tools. These are simple surface materials used to add extra detail to the environment. Every AI assisted texture was manually edited, cleaned up, and adjusted to fit the game's style. Where AI Was Not Used All of the core creative work in Golden Years is fully handcrafted. This includes: Level design and layout Atmosphere, lighting, and mood Gameplay systems and mechanics Environmental storytelling Overall direction and feel of the game No AI tools were used to design gameplay, build levels, or shape the game's atmosphere. Store Page and Descriptions Some of the text on the Steam store page may use AI assistance for drafting or polishing. All final wording is reviewed and edited to make sure it accurately represents the game. Gameplay Logic AI is not used for in game decision making, player behavior, or gameplay logic. Everything that affects how the game plays is traditionally designed and implemented.

| Steam disclosure | AI content disclosed |
| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Partial AI · mixed signals, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure states five or six environmental textures were AI-created or retextured, so some shipped in-game assets are AI-generated. Core creative work, level design, and gameplay logic are described as handcrafted, indicating real development effort. Store text may also use AI drafting, but that is minor. Against: The game has zero reviews three months after release, and the developer released two games in the last 12 months, which could hint at limited scope, though not enough to establish low-effort volume. |
