What the developer says
Generative AI was used to create certain visual assets, including the storefront/marketing artwork, main menu background, loading screens, image-based cutscenes, and a couple of background 3D meshes. All programming and narrative design were developed manually.

| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Partial AI · solid production, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure lists several AI-made visual assets players see, so scope is parts rather than none. Programming and narrative were done manually, and the developer has only one release, so there is no volume-release pattern. Only one review exists, but the release cadence does not meet the high-effort-risk threshold. Against: The game has just one review two months after release, which limits evidence of effort; the AI use is limited to visuals, not core gameplay. |
