| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Partial AI · solid production, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure states AI was used for some art, voice lines, and 3D models, so AI content ships to players. It is described as partial, with the game otherwise solo developed. The developer has only one game and no rapid release pattern. Against: The game is unreleased with no reviews, so the actual proportion of AI content can't be verified; 'some' may understate or overstate it. |
