| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Minor AI · mixed signals, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure limits AI to concept drafts for icons that were then refined by hand. Only one game released in the last 12 months, so no volume-release pattern. Zero reviews four months after release is a weak signal, not enough for high effort risk. Against: Zero reviews long after release and 2 of 3 studio games disclosing AI hint at limited reception, but nothing shows mass production. |
