| AI judgment deepseek-flash | AI-heavy · AI scope: major · effort risk: mediumReasoningThe disclosure names AI assistance across code, artwork, music, writing, and translation, covering several major asset types. Assets are fixed rather than generated live, so scope is major but not core. The developer has only one game and no release cadence suggesting volume production. Against: The game is not yet released, has only one title from the developer, and the disclosure frames AI as assisting rather than replacing production. |
