What the developer says
Pre-generated content only. The game makes no network calls and generates nothing at runtime. ART. All 2D art is pixel art produced with PixelLab, an AI image generation service, from prompts written by the developer and kept in the repository (tools/pixellab.py). This covers device sprites, component and interface icons, shop and manufacturer marks, effects, textures, the menu backdrop, achievement icons and the store capsules. Every image was reviewed and selected by the developer, many were regenerated against a written art direction until they matched it, and several are further transformed in code — trimmed and squared, recoloured for dark backgrounds, made seamless for tiling, or desaturated to produce the locked variant of an achievement icon. TEXT AND LOCALISATION. The interface text, the tutorial, the help book and the in-game prose were written with AI assistance, and the translations into German, Turkish, French, Italian and Spanish were AI-produced from the English. All of it was reviewed by the developer. The store description and its five translations were produced the same way.

| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Major AI · mixed signals, high confidenceReasoningThe disclosure states all 2D art came from an AI image service, covering sprites, icons, effects, textures, and store capsules. Writing and localisation were also AI-assisted. Developer reviewed and transformed assets, and release cadence is low, so effort risk stays medium rather than high. Against: Developer wrote prompts, reviewed every image, regenerated against art direction, and post-processed assets in code; only one game in the last 12 months. |
