| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Partial AI · solid production, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure states AI-assisted pixel art tools were used for some 2D assets and key art, so AI content ships to players. It also states all design, code, systems, and gameplay were hand-made, with no live AI generation. One release in 12 months and a single review give no sign of volume production. Against: Only one review exists two months after release, so player feedback is minimal; the developer's own claim that most work is hand-crafted is unverified. |
