| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Minor AI · solid production, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure limits AI to marketing and localization, which are store-facing or supporting assets, not in-game content. The developer has one game and no rapid release pattern. Pixel art, anime, and roguelike tags suggest a handcrafted game, though nothing confirms it. Against: The game is unreleased with no reviews, so in-game content can't be verified; the disclosure doesn't rule out undisclosed AI in assets. |
