| Source | Their take |
|---|---|
| Steam disclosure | AI content disclosed |
| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Partial AI · solid production, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure states AI was used for coloring in-game art assets and final audio, so some shipped content is AI-assisted. Design elements are declared original, and the developer has only one release, so there's no sign of low-effort volume. Very few reviews yet, but the game is brand new, so that isn't strong evidence either way. Against: Developer says all design elements are original and AI was only assistive; only one release, so no volume pattern. |
