What the developer says
This game was developed based on the concept of creating a Steam game with AI and Unity. Some in-game 3D models, images/artwork, UI elements, sounds, text, and multilingual localization copy were generated or assisted by generative AI tools, then directly edited, arranged, implemented, and finalized by the developer in Unity. The game does not generate new AI content in real time during gameplay. All AI-generated or AI-assisted elements were created, reviewed, and edited in advance before being included as part of the game content.

The developer says all content was reviewed and finalized manually in Unity, and no live generation occurs. Only one release in 12 months with 10 reviews, so no volume-release pattern. Against: Developer states AI output was directly edited, arranged, and finalized by hand, indicating real implementation effort; only one game released, not a high-volume pattern. |
