What the developer says
The in-game Quality Control reviewer is powered by a small language model that runs locally on your own computer. When you send a reply, it reads what you wrote and answers a fixed set of questions about it, which the game turns into your score. Every sentence the reviewer says back to you was written by hand. The model itself never writes any text that you see. No internet connection is required, and nothing you type is ever sent anywhere.

| AI judgment deepseek-flash | AI-assisted · AI scope: parts · effort risk: mediumReasoningThe disclosure states a small local language model evaluates player input and drives scoring, so AI affects gameplay. All visible dialogue is hand-written, and the game has story, humor and simulation tags suggesting authored content. Only one release, no reviews yet, so volume signals are limited. Against: The model generates no text players see, and the game is a single recent release with no evidence of mass production. |
