| Source | Their take |

| Steam disclosure | AI content disclosed |
| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Major AI · mixed signals, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure states AI generated audio (sound effects and music) and the splash screen, covering several asset types. That is a large share of what players hear and see, though gameplay and other art appear human-made. Only one game released in the last year, so volume-release signals are absent. Against: Only one release in 12 months and a single positive review, so there is no pattern of mass-produced output; the AI use is limited to audio and a splash screen rather than core gameplay. |
