| AI judgment deepseek-flash | AI-assisted · AI scope: minor · effort risk: lowReasoningThe disclosure limits AI to development-phase placeholders and references, not shipped content. The developer has released no games in the last 12 months, so there is no volume-release pattern. The game is unreleased, so final assets cannot yet be verified. Against: The game is not out yet, so whether the promised hand-crafted replacements actually ship is unconfirmed. |
