What the developer says
We use AI tools to generate initial character concepts and static base sprites. These generated images serve as a foundation and are subsequently manually edited, processed, rigged, and animated by hand using 2D animation software to create the final assets seen in the game.

| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Partial AI · mixed signals, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure states AI was used for character concepts and base sprites, which are in-game visual assets, so scope is parts rather than none. The developer describes manual editing, rigging, and animation, indicating real production effort. Only one release in 12 months, so no volume signal; zero reviews two months after release is a mild concern but not enough for high risk. Against: The developer claims substantial manual post-processing and hand animation of AI-derived assets, and the game has only one release, undercutting a mass-production read. |
