| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Minor AI · mixed signals, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure covers only main menu 2D art, a small storefront-facing detail, so AI scope is minor. The developer has released one game in the past year, not a volume pattern. No reviews yet, but the game is brand new, so low effort isn't established. Against: Zero reviews shortly after release and a single-game catalog give little signal about overall production effort. |
