| AI judgment deepseek-flash | AI-assisted · AI scope: parts · effort risk: lowReasoningThe disclosure states some art content is AI placeholder, so AI-generated assets ship to players. The game is unreleased with no reviews, and the developer has only one game, so there is no sign of low-effort volume. The scope appears limited to placeholder art rather than core content. Against: The game is not yet released, so the final shipped content and how much placeholder art remains are unknown. |
