What the developer says
Serv-Bot's Firewall uses AI tools in its art and media pipeline, always under human direction and review: Sprite art. The game's original hand-authored sprites were upscaled and repainted at native resolution with an image-editing model (Qwen-Image-Edit), then reviewed, corrected and in many cases restored to the originals by hand. Concept art for the six "arsenal" enemy types, the Serv-Bot HUD portraits and the achievement icon motifs were generated with local image models (Z-Image Turbo, Qwen-Image-Edit) from our own designs and reference art, then composited and finished in code. Canon elements such as the Greeb ship in the icons are the game's own sprite art, not generated. Cutscenes. The in-game story videos come from our SIGNAL series. Keyframes were generated with a local image model trained on our own characters, motion with a local video model (Wan 2.2), narration with a text-to-speech model (Kokoro) and music with local music models (ACE-Step, Stable Audio Open). Scripts, story, character designs, editing and direction are ours. Localization. Interface text in 28 languages was machine-translated with an AI model from our English source and has not yet been reviewed by native speakers. Code. Parts of the game's code were written with AI coding assistance, reviewed and tested by the developer. Sound effects are procedurally synthesised, not AI-generated. All AI generation ran on the developer's own hardware; no copyrighted third-party works were used as inputs beyond our own assets and characters.

| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Major AI · mixed signals, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure lists AI generation across art, cutscenes (keyframes, motion, voice, music) and 28-language localization, covering several major asset types. It also describes human direction, hand restoration of sprites, and original scripts and designs, so effort is not minimal. Only one release in 12 months and no reviews yet, so volume-based mass-production signals are absent. Against: Developer states sprites were reviewed and partly restored by hand, scripts and designs are original, and sound effects are procedural rather than AI; only one game released, so no volume pattern. |
