Where do games disclose AI use?
Search developers’ Steam disclosures, compare classified AI use across
games, and follow recorded changes.
This index adds cross-game classifications and statistics to
statements published on individual store pages.
Groups reflect automatic analysis of public disclosures; mature records are excluded. These counts do not measure AI use across all of Steam.
Missing or unclear statements cannot establish whether a game uses AI.
The game was designed, assembled, reworked, tested, and integrated by the developer, with a manually defined artistic direction and gameplay experience.
Generative AI tools were used as creative assistance for certain visual, audio, cinematic, code-related, and promotional content.
This content was then selected, edited, adapted, and adjusted to match the game’s artistic identity, gameplay, and final experience.
Some art assets in this game were created with the assistance of generative AI, used for concept design and texture generation of characters, enemies, and environments. All gameplay logic, code, balance tuning, and game design were hand-crafted.
The game was vibe coded. Many of the current assets were generated by various GenAI models, some of which will be staying but some of which are just placeholders for the time being. Much manual work still goes into making everything look good and come together even when using GenAI.
JellyWorms uses generative AI-assisted visual content for some game art, store assets, and marketing materials. Final assets are reviewed and edited by the developer before release. The game does not generate live AI content during gameplay.
Generative AI was used to assist in creating some visual assets during development. All final in-game artwork was manually retouched and finalized by human artists.
During the development process, I may use procedural- and AI-based tools to assist with content creation. In all such cases, the final product reflects the creativity and expression of myself.
AI generation tools were used to assist in creating 2D asset designs, specifically the main menu background artwork, enemy sprites, and power-up graphics. All code, level design, and core gameplay mechanics were traditionally developed.
Some 2D store and marketing assets — such as store capsule images, achievement icons, and key art — were created using AI image-generation tools and then refined and composited by hand. All gameplay, code, level design, and game systems are made by the developer without generative AI. All AI-assisted assets are reviewed to ensure they are appropriate and comply with Steam's rules.
This game uses generative AI to help create some assets, including audio/voice and visual content. All outputs are reviewed and edited by the developers before being used.
AI has been used to generate some graphics, music, and translations.
As the story of this game may suggest, I understand (and even share) most of the criticisms regarding AI, but it is also a tool that has enabled small creators like myself to achieve bigger things that would have been difficult without it.
I am writing to provide further explanation regarding the AI content disclosure. We used an AI-assisted video and image editing tool, specifically CapCut (also known as JianYing), to help edit and generate some of the assets for our promotional trailer and store page images. The AI features within this software were utilized to assist in the editing, effects, and visual generation process for these store page assets.
Everything is AI generated... I built my own Agentic AI harness, and then used it to build this game (as well as generating images, soundtrack, and 1000s of lines of text content etc)... I'm not a developer, I'm a Functional/UX/Graphic Designer that finally found a tool that could help me build my dream games... I wouldn't consider the game "vibe coded", it has been months of obsessive iterations to ensure the functionality and user experience is of the highest level, which was 100% designed and directed by me, using Agentic AI to build to order. It's far from a "one-shot" prompt hope and prayer... and I think you'll be surprised when you see it.
Some visual assets were created with the assistance of generative AI tools and then manually edited, adjusted, and finalized by the developer. The game does not use real-time generative AI during gameplay.
Generative artificial intelligence has been used to create and assist with pre-rendered graphic assets included in the final product. Specifically, it was employed to generate loading screen illustrations, the cover art design (acting as a filter), and sprites for certain enemies and minor environmental elements. All content was reviewed, edited, and statically packaged prior to distribution and use in the game.
Solvizz was designed, written, and hand-crafted by a small team, but generative AI played a supporting role in parts of production. Specifically, some placeholder art (achievement icons, region glyph references) and placeholder audio (background music tracks and sound effects) were generated with AI tooling to prototype the game's mood before final assets. AI was also used as a coding assistant during development. All puzzle design, game mechanics, story, level content, and code decisions were authored and reviewed by humans. No player-submitted data is sent to any AI system at runtime — the game is fully offline.

Generative AI was used during the development of this game to assist with:
- Generating static illustrations for in-game achievement icons.
- Generating placeholder sound effects to be swapped before exiting EA
Portions of the game's visual assets were created with the assistance of generative AI and subsequently reviewed, edited, and integrated by the developer. All gameplay systems, game design, programming, balancing, and final implementation were developed by the developer.
Store page artwork (capsule images and header) was created with
the assistance of AI image generation tools (Stable Diffusion /
Flux). All in-game content, text, and gameplay logic is
human-authored. No AI is used to generate content during gameplay.
Artificial intelligence tools were used to refine part of the game's music and certain sound effects, as well as specific graphical assets, support programming, debugging, and bug-fixing tasks
Some of Citadel Zero's visual assets (pixel-art sprites, icons, and backgrounds) were created with the help of generative AI tools, then reviewed and refined by the developer. All such content is pre-generated and baked into the game — Citadel Zero performs no real-time AI generation and connects to no AI service while you play.
Generative AI was used to create some promotional artwork and store images for the Steam store page. The application itself does not generate AI content and contains no AI-generated gameplay content.
Some of the games text was drafted with the assistance of generative AI and then edited by hand by developers before inclusion.
The game's audio is procedurally synthesized in-engine (algorithmic DSP) and layered with real & recorded audio by the developers. not produced by a generative AI model.
Some of the games 3D model primitive shapes were drafted with the assistance of generative AI, but finalized by hand.
Xalvorynthium does not use generative AI during gameplay and does not connect to any external AI service while the game is running.
Some pre-generated visual assets used for store marketing, promotional artwork, capsule images, logos, or related presentation materials may have been created or assisted with generative AI tools. These assets were reviewed and selected by the developer before use.
I used AI to help review code and check for any bugs. Also a few small pieces of art that will be changed/updated by release while we get artists commissioned.
Some of this game's images and artwork, its background music, and parts of its translated text were created with the help of generative AI tools. All AI-assisted content was reviewed by the developer before being included. The Sudoku puzzles themselves are generated by traditional (non-AI) algorithms, and no content is generated by AI while you play.

Idle Startup is made by a solo developer with the help of generative AI. The milestone background artwork — the illustrations that unlock as each skill levels up — is generated with AI image tools and then selected and curated by the developer. The game's code is also written with the assistance of AI coding tools. All music and sound effects are generated procedurally in code, the interface art and icons are hand-drawn, and all in-game text is written by the developer.
Some of the artwork currently in Norectus: Theatre of War was created with generative AI tools during development, including card art, in-game backgrounds, and store images. We use it as placeholder art so we can build, balance, and expand the game during Early Access. We are commissioning human artists and replacing this AI-generated art over time. Every AI-assisted asset is reviewed by our team before it goes into the game.
Some visual assets used in this game were created or assisted using generative AI during development and have been reviewed and edited by the developer before being included in the final game. The game does not use generative AI during gameplay and does not generate content in real time.
Some asset textures, background music, and assistance with game development questions include AI-generated content.
