What the developer says
I created this game solo, using generative AI as one of the tools. It helped me write the code and also generated the ambient music and some of the planet textures. Everything else was crafted by hand: the interface, Fjord and the seals orbiting the Earth aren't drawn images — they're rendered in code. Nothing is generated while you play: the game runs fully offline. And no, I didn't just sit around drinking coffee while the AI did the work — though I certainly did consume an obscene amount of coffee.

| AI judgment deepseek-flash | AI-assisted · AI scope: parts · effort risk: lowReasoningThe disclosure states AI made some in-game planet textures and ambient music, so AI content ships to players. Most assets and the interface are hand-crafted, and nothing is generated during play. Only one release in 12 months, so no volume pattern. Against: Developer is new with a single release and only one review, so effort signals are limited; the disclosure is self-reported and unverified. |
