| AI judgment deepseek-flash | AI-assisted · AI scope: parts · effort risk: lowReasoningThe disclosure states AI images ship in-game for specific disturbing content, so some assets are AI-generated. Capsule and cover art are also AI-made, but that is store/marketing scope. The developer has only two games and one release in the past year, so no volume pattern. Against: The game is unreleased with no reviews, and the disclosure suggests AI was used for a limited set of images rather than most assets. |
