What the developer says
AI-assisted tools were used during development to create fixed assets that are baked into the build and the store page: - Pixel-art sprites for Ariel, the sea creatures and the guardians - Pixel-art background scenery (reef pieces and distant layers) and battle-effect sprites - Store page key art (capsules and library images) - Drafts of some in-game text and the EN / RU / JA localization, reviewed by the developer Game design, code, level layouts and the user interface are human-authored. All music and sound effects are synthesized by the game's own code at runtime - there are no audio files and no AI model is involved. The pixel font is Fusion Pixel (SIL Open Font License). The trailer and screenshots are captured directly from the game. No AI model runs while the game is playing. The build is fully offline.

| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Major AI · mixed signals, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure lists AI-generated sprites, scenery, effects, key art, and drafted text/localization, covering most visual asset types. Design, code, level layouts, and UI are stated as human-authored, and audio is code-synthesized, showing real development effort. The developer has 6 games disclosing AI but only 5 releases in 12 months, below the 12+ threshold for high effort risk. Against: Human-authored design, code, level layouts, and UI plus runtime-synthesized audio point to genuine effort; no AI runs during play and the build is offline. |
