| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Partial AI · solid production, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure states some assets and scenes were generated, so AI content ships to players. It also describes real-world scans and photos and a two-year effort by a two-person team, indicating substantial human work. No volume-release pattern: zero games in the last 12 months. Against: The disclosure is vague about which assets are AI-generated versus scanned, so the exact share of AI content is uncertain. |
