| Steam disclosure | AI content disclosed |
| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Partial AI · mixed signals, medium confidenceReasoningThe store disclosure states some backgrounds came from an external creator using AI tools, so a portion of in-game art is AI-generated. The rest of the game appears human-made, with no evidence of AI in writing, audio, or voice. Only one release, so no volume pattern. Against: Only backgrounds are affected, and they were supplied by an outside creator rather than generated in-house; the game has no reviews yet, so player reception is unknown. |
