Reasoning

The disclosure covers only store art and title screen art, which are marketing and presentation assets rather than in-game content. The game has procedural generation and pixel graphics but no indication those are AI-made. One release in 12 months and 6 positive reviews suggest a small, normal production.

Against: The title screen is seen by players, so some AI-touched presentation ships with the game; a single release with few reviews limits how much can be confirmed.
