What the developer says
WinBolo's core engine and gameplay code was originally written by John Morrison between 1998 and 2008. The 2.0 modernization — including build system updates, the networking rewrite and platform ports — was developed with assistance from AI coding tools, with all architectural decisions, code review, and final integration handled by John Morrison. Some non-gameplay marketing materials — including images and video elements used in trailers, social media, and the store page — were created using AI image generation as a starting point, with composition, editing, effects, and final selection done by hand. Gameplay screenshots and video footage are unedited captures from the actual game. The game itself contains no generative AI content at runtime. Player-facing in-game assets (graphics, sound, music, text, UI) are human-created. The in-game AI opponents ("Brains," including NewAutopilot and future ML-trained agents) use traditional game AI techniques and trained reinforcement-learning models — they don't generate text, images, or audio during play.

| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Minor AI · solid production, high confidenceReasoningThe disclosure limits AI to coding assistance and store/trailer marketing assets, not shipped in-game content. The game itself is a long-running human-authored project with hand-finished marketing and unedited gameplay captures. Only one release in 12 months and solid review reception suggest real effort. Against: AI was used in the core engine rewrite and marketing visuals, so some AI involvement touches the shipped product's foundation. |
