What the developer says
Some of AquaDucked! was made with generative AI tools: - The music is currently generated (Suno and ACE-Step). I'd love to replace it with a real soundtrack one day. If you make music, get in touch. - Some of the store text was drafted with AI help. Everything else is human-made: the tools and objects are original hand-painted watercolor, the ducks are photographs of real rubber ducks with a watercolor treatment applied, and the menus, icons and animated horizons are drawn in code. All of this was generated during development. The game does not generate content while you play and does not connect to any AI service while you play.
