What the developer says
Roads Taken was made by one developer working with an AI assistant (Anthropic's Claude). The assistant wrote most of the game's code under the developer's direction, including the code that draws the pixel art and composes the music, and it wrote the game's text together with the developer: the hand-written campaign, Wren's story, and the lines the generated stories are built from. Every part was directed, reviewed and chosen by the developer. The recorded instruments come from a freely licensed sound font.

| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Major AI · mixed signals, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure states AI wrote most code plus the game's text, and code that draws art and composes music. That covers several major asset types, so scope is major. The developer directed and reviewed everything and releases rarely, so effort risk stays medium rather than high. Against: The developer directed, reviewed and chose every part, and recorded instruments come from a licensed sound font; this suggests real curation rather than volume output. |
