What the developer says
This game is a solo project; the developer made it with the help of AI tools: - The game's content and text were conceived by the developer and written up with AI assistance (drafting and polishing); the other languages were translated with AI assistance. - The characters and their animations, the music, and the source assets for the interface, arenas, sound effects and visual effects were purchased, licensed or commissioned from third-party creators. - The interface, arenas, intro and visual effects are drawn and composed by code; sound effects are edited and mixed by code, with added layers of synthesized sound. - That code (the shaders, pixel-art scripts and audio processing) was written by the developer with the help of AI coding tools; no AI image-generation or audio-generation models were used. - The store capsule artwork was commissioned from a human artist; its background may contain AI-generated elements. The game does not use AI to generate any content at runtime.

Against: Capsule background may contain AI-generated elements, which players see on the store page; developer's other games also disclose AI, but that is not evidence for this game. |
