What the developer says
As a solo developer, I use Generative AI in limited, clearly defined ways during the development of Anomaly Island. This includes: Assisting in the creation of certain UI elements Helping with coding learning and a small number of the sound effects Generating quick previews of marketing materials via in-game screenshots lightly animated into short clips for promotional use All AI-assisted marketing assets are explicitly labeled and further edited or composited using traditional tools, such as Adobe After Effects. All unlabeled images, screenshots, and videos shown on this Steam page or in official trailers are directly captured from real in-engine gameplay with no generative AI manipulation. No environments, models, animations, gameplay systems, level design, or narrative content are AI-generated.

| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Partial AI · mixed signals, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure states AI assisted certain UI elements and a small number of sound effects, which players see and hear, so scope is parts. Marketing previews are labeled and edited, and the developer says core assets are not AI-generated. A curator alleges AI use but gives no game-specific evidence. Against: The developer explicitly denies AI in environments, models, animations, gameplay systems, level design, and narrative; the curator note is a general statement without checkable evidence for this game. |
