Production signals

Facts about who made the game and how players received it. They don't depend on AI, and they help tell a carefully made game that used some AI apart from mass-produced ones.

What the developer says

We used generative AI tools during development to help create pre-rendered assets: part of the visual art (environments, buildings, characters and interface elements), the music, and store page artwork. All AI-generated content was reviewed, edited and assembled by us. Generative AI is not used at runtime — the game generates no AI content while you play.

From the “AI Generated Content Disclosure” on the Steam store page, quoted as written. First seen by us on Oct 28, 2026.

Reasoning

The disclosure states AI was used for environments, buildings, characters, interface elements, music, and store art, covering several major asset types. No runtime generation is claimed and the developer says output was reviewed and assembled by people. The studio releases frequently and discloses AI across all its games, but only 4 reviews exist so far.

Against: Developer states all AI content was reviewed, edited and assembled by hand, and AI is not used at runtime; only 3 releases in 12 months, below the volume threshold.
