| Steam disclosure | AI content disclosed |
| AI judgment deepseek-flash | AI-assisted · AI scope: parts · effort risk: mediumReasoningThe disclosure states AI was used for visible in-game assets like characters and bullets, so scope is parts rather than none. The developer says gameplay and logic are hand-made and other assets are licensed, suggesting real development effort. Only one release, so no volume pattern; zero reviews four months out is a mild concern but not enough for high risk. Against: Developer states AI assets were manually refined and that all gameplay and logic are fully developer-created; only one game released, so no mass-production pattern. |
