What the developer says
Some visual assets in HODULGAP were created with the assistance of generative AI tools during development, including early concept art, sprite bases, icons, and visual effects. These assets are manually edited, simplified, cleaned up, and adjusted by the developer before being included in the game. HODULGAP does not use AI to generate content during gameplay. Music and sound effects are sourced from non-AI asset libraries.

| AI judgment deepseek-flash | AI-assisted · AI scope: parts · effort risk: lowReasoningThe disclosure states AI assisted several visual asset types, but these were manually edited before inclusion. Music and sound come from non-AI libraries, and no AI runs during gameplay. The developer has released no games in the last 12 months, so there is no volume-release signal. Against: The game is not yet released and has no reviews, so effort and final asset quality cannot be verified; manual editing suggests real development work. |
