What the developer says
If you could peek inside my code or topology, you would BEG me to use AI to fix it. BUT NO. This crap is handmade and stays that way! The soundtrack, however, is a hybrid: I used generative AI to create raw textures, which I then manually arranged and mixed.

| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Partial AI · solid production, high confidenceReasoningThe developer discloses AI used for soundtrack textures, so some shipped audio is AI-generated. The developer states code and other content are handmade, and the soundtrack was manually arranged and mixed. One release in 12 months with 28 reviews and 89% positive suggests a single small project, not volume output. Against: The curator's note is an allegation without checkable evidence and adds nothing beyond the developer's own disclosure. |

| Games That Use AI Generation Steam curator | “No, I would not beg you to use AI to "fix" your code, no matter how bad it is. Similarly, I would not beg you to use AI to make your soundtrack, but you went & did that anyway. To the brig with them.” |
