What the developer says
This project is, above all, a personal creation, driven by a clear artistic vision and specific game design intentions. During the development process, I used artificial intelligence tools as production assistants, particularly to speed up certain technical tasks (such as coding support) and to explore visual ideas. All generated elements were then carefully selected, refined, and integrated to ensure consistency with the project's artistic direction and game design. The AI did not design the game: it simply served as a tool among others in the creative process, just like a game engine, graphic software, or a code library. Thank you for supporting independent projects and creative experimentation. Franck

| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Minor AI · mixed signals, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure describes AI as a production assistant for coding support and visual idea exploration, not as the source of shipped art. No evidence of mass-produced volume: one game in 12 months. Zero reviews six months after release is a mild concern but not enough for high effort risk. Against: The disclosure mentions exploring visual ideas, so some AI-influenced visuals may reach players; the exact scope is not specified. |
