What the developer says
Generative AI tools were used during development to create part of what you see and hear: the portraits of the fictional players and their faces at different ages, background illustrations, the short ambient videos, the music, the commentator's recorded calls and the surnames he calls out —a synthetic voice that does not belong to any real person— and part of the art on this page. Everything was reviewed, trimmed and edited by hand before going in, and every commentator line was checked with speech recognition to make sure it says what it should. The sound effects are real public-domain recordings. The game does not generate anything with AI while you play.

| AI judgment deepseek-flash | AI-heavy · AI scope: major · effort risk: mediumReasoningThe disclosure lists several major asset types as AI-generated: character portraits, backgrounds, video, music, and voice. That covers most of what players see and hear, so scope is major. Editing and speech-recognition checks suggest real production effort, and the studio has only one release, so effort risk stays medium. Against: Developer states all AI output was reviewed and edited by hand, sound effects are real public-domain recordings, and nothing is generated live during play. |
