What the developer says
Ashen Crown was built almost entirely with the help of generative AI. The game's code was written through conversation with an AI assistant (Claude), with me directing, correcting, testing, and deciding what the game should be. All in-game visuals are drawn in code rather than created by an artist, and the sound and music were generated with AI as well. No third-party art, audio, or text assets were used. AI was a tool throughout development; the design, direction, and final decisions are mine.
