What the developer says
Generative AI Disclosure During the development of SandSea Ark, we utilized generative AI tools (such as Claude) to assist with: 1. Code writing and debugging: AI-assisted generation and optimization of GDScript code to improve development efficiency. 2. Data configuration: Assistance in maintaining game data tables and configuration files. 3. Documentation: Some technical documents and changelogs were generated with AI assistance. The following content was NOT generated using AI: - Game art assets, UI design, and scene layouts - Core game design, mechanics, and balance tuning This game does not contain live-generated AI content — all in-game content is pre-designed and hand-crafted. The game does not dynamically generate text, images, or audio during gameplay.

| AI judgment deepseek-flash | AI-assisted · AI scope: minor · effort risk: lowReasoningThe disclosure limits AI to development-side tasks like coding, config files, and docs, not shipped art or audio. Art, UI, and core design are declared human-made, and no live generation occurs. Developer has no rapid-release pattern, so effort risk is low. Against: AI-assisted code and data work still shapes the shipped game, and the disclosure is self-reported and unverified. |
