What the developer says
Some of the game's 2D art assets (creature/lifeform illustrations and background imagery) were created with the help of generative AI image-generation tools. All AI-generated assets were hand-selected, edited and curated by the developer before being included in the build. The game does not generate any AI content live at runtime — all content ships pre-made.

| Source | Their take |
|---|---|
| Steam disclosure | AI content disclosed |
| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Partial AI · solid production, high confidenceReasoningThe disclosure states AI image tools were used for creature and background 2D art, so some in-game assets are AI-generated. The developer hand-selected and edited those assets, and no live generation occurs. Only one game released in the last 12 months, so volume signals are absent. Against: Only 5 reviews three months after release is thin, but the studio has just one release, so it does not indicate mass production. |
