| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Partial AI · solid production, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure states AI assisted with visual assets, in-game text, and localization, so some shipped content is AI-generated. That covers several asset types but is framed as assistance, not full generation. The developer released no games in the last 12 months, so no volume pattern exists. Against: The game is unreleased with no reviews, and the disclosure describes AI as assisting rather than producing content, suggesting substantial human work. |
