What the developer says
This game does not generate any content with AI during play. During development, generative AI tools were used under human direction to help create some player-facing content: - Store and marketing artwork (capsule images and similar key art). Outputs were prompted, selected, cropped, and edited by the developer to match the game’s clay board look. - Some written text, including light in-game story dialogue and store-page copy. All text was reviewed and edited before shipping. The playable game itself is a hand-authored, turn-based puzzle: boards, rules, 3D presentation, and sound effects are implemented in code (Three.js meshes and materials; synthesized SFX). Puzzle layouts are designed and verified with a traditional search solver, not a generative model. No third-party likenesses, copyrighted characters, or illegal content are used. All AI-assisted output is reviewed before it appears on the store page or in the game.

| AI judgment deepseek-flash | AI-assisted · AI scope: parts · effort risk: lowReasoningThe disclosure states AI assisted store art and some written text, including light in-game dialogue, so AI content ships to players. Boards, rules, 3D presentation, and sound are described as hand-implemented, showing real development effort. The developer has released no games in the past year, so volume signals are absent. Against: The disclosure says all AI output was reviewed and edited, and the playable puzzle content is hand-authored with a traditional solver, pointing to limited AI scope. |
