| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Partial AI · solid production, high confidenceReasoningDisclosure states AI was used for the surfer base model and some sound effects, both player-visible assets. The developer hand-rigged and animated the model and built all waves, gameplay, levels and other art themselves. Only one game released, so no volume-release pattern. Against: Most of the game's art and all gameplay appear hand-built, and the AI base was finished by hand, suggesting limited AI scope. |
