| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Partial AI · solid production, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure states AI helped create in-game visuals like packaging, posters and icons, so some shipped assets are AI-generated. The developer has only one game and no rapid release pattern, and the disclosure describes review and editing. Most of the game appears human-made. Against: AI use is limited to decorative and packaging visuals, with editing described; no sign of volume release or AI covering major asset types. |
