What the developer says
Father, PhD student, and Software Engineer during the day; game developer at night. This game was developed solo by me over two years, with no significant budget, and before AI was cool: #realindie #livingthedream. All visual assets and other in-game content were created by humans or purchased from human creators. The only exception is the voice work, which was produced using paid professional voice synthesis software rather than human voice actors due to budget limitations (#realindie #solodev). If the game generates enough revenue and there is community interest, I plan to replace it with real voice acting in a future version.

| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Minor AI · solid production, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure states only voice work was AI-produced, with art and other content human-made or purchased. Solo development over two years suggests real effort. The curator note argues about the disclosure's framing but offers no checkable evidence of wider AI use. Against: The developer's defensive framing and the curator's criticism raise doubts, but no specific evidence shows AI in art or other assets. |
