What the developer says
Some of Deadlight's artwork was created with the help of generative AI. This includes the key art, the store and library capsules, and the ten location paintings on the expedition screen. The images were generated with a locally run image model, then chosen, cleaned up and colour-graded by hand. The store page text and its translations were drafted with AI assistance and edited by the developer. No content is generated by AI while you play.

| Steam disclosure | AI content disclosed |
| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Partial AI · solid production, high confidenceReasoningThe disclosure covers store/marketing art plus ten in-game location paintings, so some shipped assets are AI-generated. Images were hand-selected, cleaned, and colour-graded, and text was edited, indicating real production effort. No live AI generation and no volume-release pattern (0 games in 12 months). Against: The developer has only three games and all disclose AI, but that is not evidence of low-effort volume; the game is unreleased with no review data. |
