- Our AI review of these signals: solid production.
What the developer says
- **Code.** Exempt under the rule, but disclosed anyway. Most of the implementation is written by AI coding tools, working from my design and under my review. - **Arts and visuals.** Inside the game, none. The UI is drawn by code, there's no image art, and the logo is text-art. The **store capsule and header art on Steam and itch is AI-generated.** - **Audio.** No generated audio that I know of. Sound effects are a licensed Bluezone "Cargo Spaceship" pack plus a few Kenney CC0 clips. The seven ambient music tracks are licensed from Pixabay. None carries Pixabay's AI-generated label, and that's as far as I can attest to how they were made. - **Text and writings.** There's no story or dialogue in the game. The in-game UI labels, notification lines and the guide steps were written alongside the code by the same AI coding tools, then reviewed and edited by me. I'm listing them here even though they could arguably sit under the code exemption. - **Marketing.** My devlogs, the store description and this post were drafted with AI help and edited by me. The trailer is raw gameplay capture. Screenshots are straight from the game. - **Live-generated content.** None. No model runs inside the game and nothing is generated at runtime.

| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Minor AI · solid production, high confidenceReasoningDisclosure limits AI to store/marketing art and AI-drafted UI labels and code, all reviewed by the developer. In-game art is code-drawn with no image assets, and audio is licensed. No runtime generation and no volume-release pattern. Against: AI-drafted UI labels and notification lines ship in-game, which could push scope slightly above store-only assets. |
