What the developer says
The ship and part artwork was generated with AI, then hand-edited and traced by me into the sprites and collision shapes the game actually uses. Nothing generative runs while you play. There is no AI service wired into the build, and the game never calls one. The music is licensed from real artists, and the sound effects come out of a script I wrote. Neither is AI. I want to replace the AI art with work from real artists before Early Access ends. I am not going to promise a date for that, but it is what I am working toward.

| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Partial AI · solid production, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure says AI made the ship and part artwork, which players see, so scope is parts rather than none. The developer describes hand-editing and tracing that art, and licensed music plus scripted sound effects, indicating real production effort. No volume signals: zero releases in the last 12 months and the game is unreleased. Against: The developer says nothing generative runs at runtime and plans to replace AI art with real artists; the AI art is still hand-edited, which points to effort rather than mass production. |
