What the developer says
Generative AI tools were used to create photographic source images that were then painted over and edited in Photoshop for the game’s artwork, and to create the game’s background music. Generative AI also assisted with portions of the game’s written text and localization and with drafting and editing Steam store-page copy. All AI-assisted material was reviewed and incorporated into the final work by the developer. No content is generated during gameplay.

| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Partial AI · solid production, high confidenceReasoningThe disclosure says AI generated photographic source images later painted over, plus background music and portions of writing and localization. These are in-game assets, but the developer reviewed and incorporated everything, and no content is generated during play. Only one release in the past year and few reviews, with no sign of volume production. Against: AI touched several asset types (art, music, writing), which could push scope higher, but the art was reworked by hand and the studio shows no mass-release pattern. |
