What the developer says
This game uses generative AI tools to create some of its artwork: promotional art such as the key visual and store capsule images, and some in-game image assets such as character portraits and map textures. All of it was reviewed, curated, and adjusted by the developer before use. Every screenshot shown on the store page is captured from actual gameplay and is not AI-generated. The shipped game does not use any AI to generate images, text, or audio at runtime.
