What the developer says
During development, some in-game surface textures (e.g. ground/terrain tile materials) were created with the assistance of generative AI image tools and then hand-edited and integrated into the game as static assets. All such content is pre-generated and fixed at ship time; the game does not generate any content live at runtime. We have reviewed this content to ensure we have the appropriate rights to use it and that it does not infringe on the rights of others.

| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Partial AI · solid production, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure states AI image tools helped create some in-game terrain textures, which are hand-edited static assets. That is a limited subset of assets, not most of the art or other asset types. The developer has one recent release, so no volume-release pattern. Against: Only 5 reviews and 40% positive two months after release, but a single release does not meet the high-volume threshold; AI use is disclosed and bounded to textures. |
