What the developer says
Pre-generated AI: GPT Image 2 was used during development to create 2D paper-cut-style images included in the app, including weather phenomena, collectible visitors, ecosystem entities, Steam achievement icons, and key art for Steam store capsules and library assets. The developer selected and edited these images, including cropping, background removal, color and alpha cleanup, and export. The app does not use generative AI at runtime.

| AI judgment deepseek-flash | AI-assisted · AI scope: parts · effort risk: lowReasoningThe disclosure states AI images ship in-game (weather, visitors, ecosystem entities) plus store assets, so scope is parts, not minor. The developer edited and curated the images, and no runtime generation is used. Only one release in 12 months, so no volume pattern. Against: Only 2 reviews two months after release, which is thin feedback; the developer did substantial manual editing of AI images, suggesting real effort. |
