What the developer says
Generative AI tools were used in limited parts of the programming, art production support, and localization workflow of this game. Generative AI is used solely as a production assistance tool within this project. The game’s design, creative decisions, and final quality remain the responsibility of our team. Any AI-assisted content is reviewed, revised, or recreated by team members before being incorporated into the game. For visual development, professional artists are directly involved in the design, production, and final review process, with original design and human-created work forming the primary foundation of the game’s visual identity. Generative AI is used only in certain supporting stages of the workflow. Its outputs are not accepted uncritically as final art assets; they are evaluated, modified, or recreated by our artists according to the project’s artistic direction and quality standards. We also respect the copyrights and individual creative identities of artists. Without authorization, we do not use the names, works, or distinctive personal styles of specific artists to train models or create content deliberately intended to imitate their work. Nor do we present the creative work of others as our own. We recognize that players and creators hold different views regarding generative AI, and we therefore believe it is important to be transparent about how it is used in this game. Regardless of the technologies involved in development, we take responsibility for the content ultimately presented to players, and we regard both the quality of the work and respect for creators’ rights as fundamental principles of our development process.

| Steam disclosure | AI content disclosed |
| AI judgment deepseek-flash | AI-assisted · AI scope: parts · effort risk: lowReasoningThe disclosure states AI was used in limited supporting roles for programming, art, and localization, with human review of outputs. This suggests some AI-assisted assets ship but most content is human-made. The developer has one unreleased game, so no volume-release pattern exists. Against: The disclosure emphasizes artists design, review, and recreate AI outputs, and the game is not yet released, so the actual shipped AI content is uncertain. |
