| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Minor AI · solid production, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure covers code assistance and icons, which are limited or supporting parts rather than core content. No real-time generation and manual integration suggest human assembly. Developer has only one release in the past year, so no volume-release pattern. Against: Icons are player-visible assets, so AI scope is not zero; the game has few reviews and mixed reception, but that alone doesn't indicate low effort. |
