What the developer says
Generative AI was used solely as a supplementary tool for music composition and a small number of non-core textures (such as background patterns and decorative assets). All AI-assisted content has undergone significant manual refinement and human oversight to ensure it meets our artistic standards and visual style. AI was used only to enhance development efficiency; all core character designs, key art, and narrative elements remain 100% human-authored.

| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Partial AI · solid production, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure states AI contributed music composition and some non-core textures, which players would see and hear, so scope is parts. Core character designs, key art, and narrative are declared human-authored, and the studio has a low release cadence, suggesting real development effort. No evidence of mass-produced volume. Against: The game is unreleased with no reviews, so the actual extent of AI content and effort cannot be verified. |
