What the developer says
Pre-generated AI tools were utilized to create the foundation for the 2D background art, character sprites, and audio. All of these raw assets were then extensively edited, cropped, and manually integrated by hand to ensure they perfectly fit the game's mechanics, atmosphere, and engine requirements.

| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Partial AI · solid production, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure states AI was used for background art, character sprites, and audio, so AI touches several asset types. However, the developer claims extensive manual editing and integration, indicating real production effort. Only one game exists, not yet released, so no volume-release pattern. Against: AI covers several asset categories (art, sprites, audio), which could push scope higher; the 'extensively edited' claim is unverified. |
