What the developer says
Generative AI was used in the creation of certain visual and video materials associated with the game. Some promotional assets, including the trailer and store page visuals, were created with the assistance of AI tools. In addition, certain in-game video sequences were generated or enhanced using AI technologies. All AI-generated content was reviewed, edited, and integrated by the developer to ensure consistency with the game’s artistic vision and quality standards. The core gameplay, design, and overall experience are fully handcrafted.

| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Partial AI · solid production, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure states AI was used for store/trailer assets and certain in-game video sequences, so some shipped content is AI-generated. The developer claims core gameplay and design are handcrafted, and the game has 28 reviews at 78% positive, showing a real audience. Release cadence is 4 games in 12 months, below the high-risk threshold. Against: Only 5 of the developer's 24 games disclose AI, and the AI use is limited to video sequences and marketing rather than core assets. |
