| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Partial AI · mixed signals, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure lists AI use across several asset types, including writing and voxel art, so scope is parts rather than minor. The developer has only one release in the last 12 months, so the volume signal for high effort risk is absent. No reviews yet, but the game is newly released, so that alone doesn't indicate low effort. Against: AI touches multiple asset types (art, writing, localization), which could push scope higher; however, the disclosure frames these as assisted tools and the game is a single recent release with no volume pattern. |
