| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Partial AI · solid production, medium confidenceReasoningThe developer discloses that some character portraits and other artwork used generative AI, so AI ships to players but is limited to parts of the visuals. No AI is generated during gameplay. The studio has released no games in the last 12 months, so there is no volume-release signal. Against: The game is not yet released and the developer has only one title, so effort and scope cannot be fully assessed; the disclosure limits AI to artwork. |
