| Steam disclosure | AI content disclosed |
| AI judgment deepseek-flash | AI-assisted · AI scope: minor · effort risk: lowReasoningThe disclosure limits AI to code work, review and optimization, not player-facing assets. Graphics are described as human-made parametric rules with no AI 3D models, and audio is planned as human-made. One release in 12 months and a small but positive review base show no volume-release pattern. Against: Code-level AI use is disclosed, and the game is very new with only 4 reviews, so long-term content quality is unproven. |
