What the developer says
Generative AI was used to create visual art in this game. Creature, character and background artwork was produced with AI image and animation tools, then hand-edited, cleaned up and assembled by the developer before being placed in the game. This artwork also appears in store page and marketing materials. The game additionally uses licensed, human-made pixel-art asset packs. AI tools (LLM) were also used to help write the game's code and in-game text during development, and to translate that text into the game's six non-English languages (Korean, Simplified Chinese, Japanese, Russian, Spanish, Brazilian Portuguese). All audio - music and sound effects - is human-made and licensed from human creators; no generative AI was used for audio. No AI runs during gameplay: all content is generated ahead of time and reviewed by the developer before it ships.
