| AI judgment deepseek-flash | AI-assisted · AI scope: minor · effort risk: lowReasoningThe disclosure limits AI to marketing images, which players see on the store but not in the game. One release in 12 months and a small review count don't indicate volume production. No evidence points to AI-generated in-game assets. Against: Only 4 reviews at 50% positive, so player reception is limited and unverified beyond the developer's own statement. |
