| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Major AI · mixed signals, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure states AI generated the music and the majority of the code, covering two major production areas. Only one game released in the last 12 months, so volume-release signals are absent. Zero reviews four months after release is a weak effort signal but not enough for high risk. Against: The developer has only two games and one release in the past year, which argues against mass-produced volume; art and design effort are not addressed by the disclosure. |
