What the developer says
1453 contains pre-generated AI content. Nothing is generated while the game runs. The in-game illustrations (the scene paintings and the parchment reading surfaces) were created with generative image tools from curated reference images, under human art direction, and reviewed for historical accuracy. Their slow on-screen motion is animated in code, not generated video. The music, the ambient soundscapes and the sound effects were generated with AI audio tools, then selected, edited and looped under the author's direction. The one exception is the interface click, a human recording released under CC0. The narrative text is human–AI co-written and human-edited under the author's direction, and the game design is the author's. On the store page, the capsule artwork was made the same way as the in-game illustrations, as were the library artwork and the store page background; the trailer's cinematic shots animate the game's own illustrations with AI image-to-video tools, and the trailer's music was generated with an AI music tool.

| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Major AI · mixed signals, high confidenceReasoningThe disclosure states most asset types players see and hear are AI-generated: illustrations, music, soundscapes, SFX and co-written text. Human art direction, editing and historical review are described, and the game design is the author's, so this is not a volume-release case. Only one release in the last 12 months, so effort risk stays medium. Against: The developer describes curated references, human art direction, editing and historical review, and the game design is the author's; the interface click is a human recording. |
