| AI judgment deepseek-flash | AI-assisted · AI scope: parts · effort risk: mediumReasoningThe disclosure states AI-assisted art, animation sprites, and some sound effects ship in the game, so scope is parts rather than none. Assets were edited and assembled, and the game runs no live AI, suggesting real development effort. Only one release in 12 months, so volume signals don't reach high risk. Against: No reviews yet and a very recent release, so effort signals are limited; the disclosure itself is the only evidence. |
