What the developer says
Portions of the in-game codex (character biographies, historical battle summaries) were drafted with the assistance of a large language model based on the developer's own lore notes and edited by hand. A subset of pixel-art tile and prop textures were procedurally generated from developer-written Python scripts. All content is reviewed and finalized by the developer; no generative image models (e.g. Stable Diffusion, Midjourney) were used to produce in-game art.

| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Partial AI · solid production, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure states LLM-drafted codex text and procedurally generated tile/prop textures ship in-game, so AI touches some assets. Both are described as based on developer lore notes and scripts, with hand editing and review, indicating real development effort. The studio has no rapid-release pattern and the game is unreleased. Against: No generative image models were used for art, and AI involvement is limited to supporting text and textures rather than core content. |
