| AI judgment deepseek-flash | AI-assisted · AI scope: minor · effort risk: mediumReasoningThe disclosure limits AI to branding, splash, icon, and store/library assets, not in-game content. Only one release in the past year, so no volume-release pattern. Zero reviews four months after launch is a weak signal but not enough for high effort risk. Against: Zero reviews long after release and a new developer account could hint at low visibility, but there is no evidence of mass production or in-game AI assets. |
