| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Minor AI · mixed signals, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure covers only store text and marketing art, which counts as minor scope. Nothing indicates AI-generated in-game assets. The developer's high release rate and frequent AI disclosures raise volume concerns, but 8 reviews at 87% positive and a 2018 Steam history don't meet the mass-produced bar. Against: The developer released 7 games in 12 months and 19 of 20 disclose AI, suggesting a pattern of rapid AI-assisted releases. |
