| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Major AI · mixed signals, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure names AI for character art and background music, two major asset types players see and hear, plus translation. That pushes scope to major rather than parts. Development signals don't meet the high-effort-risk bar: only 2 releases in 12 months, not 12+. Against: Developer has a long Steam history since 2018 and only 3 of 8 games disclose AI, suggesting some human production; low review count alone isn't enough for high effort risk. |
