| Steam disclosure | AI content disclosed |
| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Partial AI · mixed signals, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure states AI assisted selected artwork and audio that ship in the game, so scope is parts rather than none. The developer has only one release in the past year, so volume-release signals are absent. No reviews yet, but the game is only two months old, which limits how much that says. Against: The disclosure says all AI-assisted content was reviewed and edited by the developer, and the studio has just one release, pointing to a small, hands-on production rather than mass output. |
