What the developer says
The visual art in Palimpsest Idle (character, enemy, weapon, equipment, icon and background art) was created during development using AI image generation tools, then curated, processed and hand-assembled by the developer. The game's two music tracks were produced during development using an AI music composition service under a licence granting full ownership of the resulting compositions. Sound effects are royalty-free library recordings and are not AI-generated. No content is generated while the game is running - all assets ship as fixed files, and the game makes no network requests during play.

| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Major AI · mixed signals, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure states every visual asset type (characters, enemies, weapons, icons, backgrounds) and both music tracks were AI-generated, covering most asset categories. Assets are fixed files with no runtime generation, and the developer curated and hand-assembled them, suggesting some production effort. Only one release in 12 months, so no volume-release pattern. Against: Developer curated and hand-assembled assets and used licensed AI music; only one game released, and it is brand new with no reviews, so low-effort volume cannot be shown. |
