What the developer says
Some of the visual, audio and text content in this game was created with the assistance of generative AI tools during development, then selected, edited and integrated by the developer. All such assets were produced under paid subscriptions to the respective services. The game does not use AI at runtime. Art: Event illustrations, story cutscene stills, UI backgrounds and store artwork were generated with Google Gemini image models, then hand-selected, colour-graded, cropped, composited and retouched by the developer. In-game UI layout, unit silhouettes and all interface design are hand-authored. Music: Background music was generated with Suno, then loudness-normalised, trimmed and loop-edited by the developer. Sound effects: Generated with ElevenLabs, then trimmed, gain-adjusted and selected from variants by the developer. Video: Story cutscene footage was generated with Kling AI, then edited, re-timed and subtitled by the developer. Text: Portions of the in-game text — battlefield unit lines, story dialogue, mercenary backstories and trait descriptions — were drafted with the assistance of an AI writing assistant, then selected, rewritten, cut and approved by the developer. The setting, historical research, characters and all final wording are the developer's. Code and game design: written by the developer. AI coding assistants were used as development tools only and produce no player-facing content.

| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Major AI · mixed signals, high confidenceReasoningThe disclosure lists AI generation across art, music, sound effects, video and writing, covering most major asset types. Code, design and UI layout are hand-authored, and assets were edited and integrated, showing real production work. Only one release in 12 months, so volume signals don't support mass-produced. Against: Developer hand-authored code, design and UI, and edited all AI assets; only 5 reviews but game released this month, so too early to judge reception. |
