What the developer says
Generative AI was used only to assist in creating a small number of visual assets, including some artwork used in the Steam store page gallery and elements of the game logo. All gameplay screenshots show the actual game. The puzzles, game design, text, and gameplay content were created manually by the developer without generative AI.

Gameplay, puzzles, and text are stated as manually created. The developer has released no games in the last 12 months, so there is no volume-release signal. Against: The disclosure is developer-provided and unverified; the game is not yet released, so shipped content cannot be inspected. |
