| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Major AI · mixed signals, high confidenceReasoningThe disclosure states AI generated the visual assets players see, all twelve music tracks, and assisted the script. That covers several major asset types, so scope is major. The developer has only one recent release and the game isn't out yet, so there's no volume pattern to suggest mass production. Against: The developer selected and unified AI art, reviewed the script, and screenshots/trailer show real gameplay; only one game in the last 12 months. |
