| Steam disclosure | AI content disclosed |
| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Partial AI · solid production, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure states AI generated in-game paintings, so some shipped assets are AI. Marketing use is minor. The developer has only two games, both disclosing AI, with no sign of high-volume releases. One review is too few to judge effort, but nothing suggests mass production. Against: Only one review long after release could hint at low effort, but the developer's release pace is not high and the AI use is limited to paintings and marketing. |
