What the developer says
There's a local Large Language Model that integrates with the game's systems and is used primarily for but not limited to dialogue generation. Several other uses are planned, including localization. AI has been used for coding and in a limited capacity for creating placeholder assets that will be replaced at a later date.

| Steam disclosure | AI content disclosed |
| AI judgment deepseek-flash | AI-heavy · AI scope: core · effort risk: lowReasoningThe disclosure states a local LLM integrates with game systems for dialogue generation, meaning AI produces content live during play. AI coding and placeholder assets add further scope. The developer has one game, not yet released, so no volume-release pattern exists. Against: Placeholder assets are described as temporary and to be replaced; the developer has only one game and no rapid-release history, so effort signals are not clearly low. |
