| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Minor AI · solid production, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure limits AI to small, mundane tasks, with all creative work stated as human-made. No in-game AI assets are described, so scope stays minor. The developer has one game and no rapid-release pattern, so effort risk is low. Against: The disclosure is self-reported and vague about which tasks were AI-assisted, so some player-visible content could still be affected. |
