| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Partial AI · mixed signals, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure states AI helped with decorative frames, store art, and some text and translations, so some shipped assets are AI-generated. The game is not built around live AI generation and the developer says assets are prepared and reviewed. Three releases in 12 months is not enough volume for high effort risk. Against: All six of the developer's games disclose AI, and the game is unreleased with no reviews, so effort signals are limited. |
