What the developer says
Pre-generated generative AI was used during development for selected static artwork and portions of player-facing writing and localization. All such content is fixed in the shipped build and was reviewed and edited during development. The game does not contact an AI service or generate content during play.

| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Partial AI · mixed signals, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure states AI was used for selected static art plus portions of writing and localization, which are in-game assets, so scope is parts. Content was fixed, reviewed, and edited, and the game does not generate anything live. Only one release, so no volume pattern; zero reviews two months out is a mild risk signal but not enough for high. Against: Developer has only one game, and the disclosure describes human review and editing of all AI content, suggesting real development effort rather than mass production. |
