| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Partial AI · mixed signals, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure states some image materials were AI-generated, so AI touches shipped assets but not the whole game. The developer has a modest release cadence (3 games in 12 months) and only some titles disclose AI, which doesn't meet the high-volume threshold. Zero reviews two months after release is a mild concern but not enough for high effort risk. Against: Only image materials are disclosed, suggesting limited scope; the game has pixel art and strategy systems that imply human development, and the release cadence is not extreme. |
