|---|---|
| Steam disclosure | AI content disclosed |
| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Major AI · mixed signals, medium confidenceReasoningThe developer's own disclosure states AI imagery is used in store assets, the menu, and throughout the game, so AI content reaches players broadly. Only 3 reviews and 33% positive 8 months after release, but the studio released just 2 games in 12 months, so volume-based mass-production criteria aren't met. Against: The disclosure is short and doesn't specify how much of the in-game art is AI versus human-made; the game has puzzle/arcade design work that may be largely hand-built. |
