What the developer says
We're a small studio, and to make it this far we used generative AI tools during development to help create some of the 3D models, a few illustrations, the character voices, some of the sound effects, and some trailer and store images. All of that material was selected, corrected, adapted and integrated by hand. Made by hand, without AI: the game design, every system and all the code, the story and writing, the balance, the levels built piece by piece, and the music, composed, mixed and mastered by Agustín Colom. The game does not generate any AI content while you play.

| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Partial AI · solid production, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure lists AI use across several asset types, but says each was selected and corrected by hand. Design, code, writing, levels, and music are stated as human-made. The studio has released no games in the last 12 months, so there's no volume signal. Against: AI touches several asset categories (models, art, voice, audio, marketing), which could push scope higher than 'parts'; the game is unreleased, so shipped content can't be verified. |
