| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Major AI · mixed signals, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure states AI was used for several major asset types: 2D art, animation, music, and sound effects. That covers most of what players see and hear, so scope is major. The developer has only one game and no volume-release pattern, and the disclosure describes human selection and editing, so effort risk stays medium rather than high. Against: The developer says all AI-assisted content is selected, edited, and integrated by hand, and no content is generated during gameplay, which points to real production effort rather than automated output. |
