What the developer says
As a small, two-person independent development team, we utilized generative AI tools to create some of our character visuals and background artworks due to budget constraints. To ensure originality and maintain our artistic vision, these AI tools were guided by our own artist's original work, with their explicit permission. Please note that these AI-generated assets are currently serving as placeholders. As development continues and our resources grow, we plan to replace them with original, hand-drawn artwork in future updates. The game does not feature any live AI content generation during gameplay.

| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Partial AI · solid production, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure states AI was used for some character visuals and backgrounds, which players see, so scope is parts. The team is two people, released one game in the last year, and has 15 reviews, so no volume or low-effort pattern. Placeholders are planned for replacement, but they still ship now. Against: AI assets are described as placeholders guided by the artist's original work, and the game has no live AI generation; only one release in 12 months argues against mass production. |
