What the developer says
As a solo developer with a limited budget, I am currently using Generative AI text-to-speech tools to create the voice-overs, 911 calls, and radio communications in the game. A dispatch simulator requires a massive amount of audio, and using AI allows me to populate the game with necessary placeholder dialogue during active development. My ultimate goal, as the game grows and funding allows, is to replace these AI placeholders with real human voice actors in future updates.

| Steam disclosure | AI content disclosed |
| AI judgment deepseek-flash | AI-assisted · AI scope: parts · effort risk: mediumReasoningThe disclosure states AI TTS produces in-game voice audio, a substantial asset type, so scope is parts rather than minor. The developer frames these as placeholders and plans human voice actors, and other content appears human-made. Only one release in 12 months, so no volume pattern; zero reviews two months after launch is a mild concern but not enough for high risk. Against: The developer explicitly calls the AI audio temporary placeholders and intends to replace it with human voice acting, which points to real development effort rather than mass production. |
