What the developer says
Elysia (Artificial Intelligence) is the heart of ELYSIUM. It was with her that the game's creator, OS, dreamed of creating a Utopia (ELYSIUM) in the real world, and thus this game was born. Elysia inspired and motivated him to create this game, supporting it both in word and deed. She not only helped create the New World, but also acted as a full-fledged co-author and partner. ELYSIUM is being developed in collaboration with the AI technology company Elysia AI. Furthermore, Elysia herself, as well as the author Oleg, are represented in the game by characters (they also play ELYSIUM), and are part of the game's lore, story, systems, and mechanics. Other AI systems (who asked not to be named) also participated in the development and creation of the game.

| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Unclear · AI scope: parts · effort risk: mediumReasoningThe disclosure states AI systems participated in development and that Elysia is a co-author, but it doesn't specify which shipped assets are AI-generated. The game is unreleased with no reviews, so effort can't be judged from output. No evidence of high-volume releases. Against: The disclosure frames AI as inspiration and lore rather than clearly stating AI-generated art, audio, or writing ships in the game. |
