Human involvement is limited to hand-picking, cleanup, and palette reduction, plus some licensed human-artist packs. No gameplay-time generation and no volume-release pattern, so effort risk stays medium. Against: Part of the art comes from licensed human-artist pixel packs, and the developer manually curates and prepares images; no AI is used during gameplay. |
