Production signals

Facts about who made the game and how players received it. They don't depend on AI, and they help tell a carefully made game that used some AI apart from mass-produced ones.

What the developer says

All AI involvement is pre-generated and human-reviewed: nothing is generated while you play, the game runs no AI models, and it never sends your data anywhere. Specifically, AI was used to draft some static artwork objects, the first-pass translations for non-English languages, and synthesizing the games soundtrack (I'm not a musician and can't afford one). Every sprite, track and translation in the game was directed, reviewed, edited, and approved by an actual person before it went in.

From the “AI Generated Content Disclosure” on the Steam store page, quoted as written. First seen by us on Oct 28, 2026.
