What the developer says
Development of Wandering Bard used generative AI tools to assist with some pre-generated character portraits, environment and store artwork, narrative and dialogue text, fixed character voice recordings, and instrumental music. All of this content was generated before release, then reviewed, selected, edited and integrated by the developer. The game does not generate content during play and does not connect to external AI services during play.
From the “AI Generated Content Disclosure” on the Steam store page, quoted as written. First seen by us on Oct 28, 2026.

|---|---|
| Steam disclosure | AI content disclosed |
| AI judgment deepseek-flash | AI-heavy · AI scope: major · effort risk: mediumReasoningThe disclosure lists AI generation across art, writing, voice, and music, which are several major asset types, so scope is major. The developer says all content was reviewed, selected, and edited, and the game is a small RPG with no live generation, which points to real curation rather than volume output. Only two releases in 12 months and no evidence of mass production keep effort risk at medium. Against: The developer states AI content was reviewed and edited before integration, and the game has no live generation; the studio has only two releases, not a high-volume pattern. |
