What the developer says
The illustrations, the sound effects and the music in this game were created with the help of generative AI tools, then selected, edited, arranged and mixed by hand. Every cat and every bonus object was placed by hand. There is no live AI generation while the game is running: everything ships with the build and is identical for every player.

| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Major AI · solid production, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure states AI was used for art, audio and music, which are several major asset types players see and hear. However, the developer says outputs were curated and edited by hand and no live generation occurs. Only one release in the last 12 months, so no volume-release pattern. Against: Hand selection, editing, arrangement and manual placement suggest real production effort; only one review exists, so player reception is barely known. |
