What the developer says
Generative AI was used to create three pre-generated images used in the game: the splash screen, loading screen, and main menu background. No other game content was generated using AI, and the game does not generate AI content during gameplay.

| AI judgment deepseek-flash | AI-assisted · AI scope: minor · effort risk: lowReasoningThe disclosure limits AI use to three pre-generated UI/menu images, which are store-adjacent presentation assets rather than core gameplay content. The developer has released only one game in the last 12 months, so there is no volume-release pattern. Nine reviews at 55% positive is a small but non-trivial sample for a recent release. Against: The game has only 9 reviews a month after release, which is limited feedback, but the single release and narrow AI scope do not indicate mass production. |
