| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Minor AI · solid production, high confidenceReasoningThe disclosure covers only one voice role, the HUD assistant, which is a small supporting element. The game shows real development effort: 76 reviews at 93% positive, a single release, and no volume-release pattern. AI use is limited and optional, so scope stays minor. Against: The AI voice is an in-game element players hear, so scope cannot be none; the developer's only game discloses AI. |
