Some in-game visual assets were generated or modified with generative AI tools during development. The game also includes pre-recorded AI-generated combat voice lines. The developer selected and integrated these as fixed game assets before release.
AI tools were used to assist with programming and to generate some promotional artwork and marketing materials. The game does not generate AI content during gameplay or connect to external AI services.
AI tools assisted with a small number of icon images and most text localization. Localized text may be replaced in future updates with higher-quality, human-translated versions.
Some scenery, creature and equipment sprites, as well as some quest texts, were created with the help of generative AI tools, then manually edited and reviewed before integration. Playable characters (Liberated Pixel Cup), music and main texts are human-created works.
During play, some NPCs offer optional, private text conversations generated by external AI services through our game server. A short memory summary may be generated to help that NPC remember previous conversations with the same player. These conversations are separate from scripted quest dialogue and cannot grant quests, items or rewards. This feature has usage limits and carries no additional charge.
Steam store and library artwork, including capsule images, the logo and icons, was created using generative AI. Gameplay screenshots were captured directly from the game.
Bloodloader was made by one developer with generative AI tools in the pipeline. Character, enemy and item sprites, tiles, icons and the store key art began as AI generations (PixelLab) and were selected, cleaned up, recoloured and assembled by the developer. Sound effects and music were generated with ElevenLabs and edited into final effects and seamless loops. Some in-game text was drafted with AI assistance and edited by the developer. Nothing is generated while you play.
The text you read in Crystalysis is written in English and Spanish, then machine-translated into the other eleven languages.
The visuals are drawn procedurally in code, the audio is synthesized while you play. The interface icons were designed with an AI design tool and edited by the developer, and the remaining small bitmaps come from the open Twemoji and Kenney sets..
The game's code and the text on this store page were written with the help of an AI assistant and edited by the developer.
Some of our store and marketing artwork (such as capsule images, library artwork and event banners) was created with the help of AI image-generation tools. Our art team used the game's own characters and hand-drawn art as the basis, and edited, reviewed and finalized every image before release.
In the game, the high-resolution aquarium backgrounds used in the optional Zen (immersive) mode were produced by upscaling our original hand-drawn backgrounds with an AI super-resolution tool. No new artwork was generated; the upscaled images were reviewed by our team, and the standard backgrounds remain the original art.
All gameplay, characters, fish designs, story text and music were created by our team or licensed from human creators.
Generative AI tools were used during development to assist with some visual assets and portions of the game's code. AI-assisted artwork includes the title background, dungeon environments, monsters, adventurers, and trap visuals. All such content was created before release and integrated as fixed game assets. Hearthdeep does not generate AI content during gameplay and does not connect to external AI services while the game is running.
The core art direction and a portion of the artwork were hand-drawn by the developer, and AI was used to produce additional assets in a matching style, which were then reviewed, edited and integrated by hand. The game's music was generated with AI tools. No AI content is generated live while the game is running.
AI tools were used for the store and library images such as capsules (generated from the game's own in-game graphics), the English, Chinese and Korean translations, the background music, and the store page text. All in-game graphics were created without AI.
Some artwork, 3D models, and code in this game were created with the assistance of AI tools during development. All AI-assisted content is pre-made and included in the game files; no content or code is generated live during gameplay.
AI was used as a support tool during development (code assistance and initial image generation). All artwork was individually reworked by hand, and no content is generated live during gameplay.
Generative AI tools were used during development to help create and refine some 2D artwork, icons and promotional images, and to assist with store-page text and translation. These assets are prepared before release and reviewed by the developer. The game does not generate AI content during gameplay or connect to an external AI service. Player-designed weapons are created with the in-game drawing and crafting tools, not generative AI.
Current development builds include one AI-generated splash-screen image and a small number of prerecorded soldier voice lines created using generative AI. No content is generated by AI during gameplay.
This game uses generative AI to help create pre-rendered store artwork, chapter illustrations, background music, and the official trailer. Game logic was drafted with AI assistance and reviewed by the developer.
All level design, gameplay mechanics, and in-game text are hand-authored. No copyrighted third-party material was used in any AI output.
Pre-generated content: Parts of the pixel art in this game were created with the AI tool PixelLab – including enemy characters and their animations, the modified boss creatures (based on licensed CC BY 4.0 dinosaur sprites), world backgrounds, story cutscene images, item and skill icons, and the logo emblem. In-game text and the English translation were written with the help of an AI language model and reviewed by hand. All music and sound effects are licensed and not AI-generated. The game does not generate any content with AI while you play. Some characters and their animation frames were subsequently redrawn or refined using OpenAI ImageGen during development.
The store capsule artwork (and the app/shortcut icons cropped from it) was created with AI image generation tools. All in-game content — art, models, audio, writing — was not AI generated.
HOW THIS GAME WAS MADE
Lane Siege is a one-person project built with an AI assistant, and it seems only fair to say exactly where that line falls.
Written with AI: the game's code, the logo and store artwork, the in-game text, and the balance numbers. Every one of those was directed, reviewed and playtested by me, and the design decisions are mine.
Made by people, not AI: every 3D model, sound effect and music track in the game is the work of named human artists, used under open licences and credited in full.
And nothing is generated while you play. The opponent you fight is ordinary game AI - rules it follows and a small table of what has worked against players before. No AI model runs while the game is running, and Lane Siege never connects to an AI service.
Generative AI was used during the development of this game. It was used for some assets, coding, and translation. Any content created with generative AI was reviewed and, where necessary, modified or adjusted before being included in the game.
AI-assisted tools are used throughout the development of Idle Frontier, including design, programming, content creation and marketing. Generative AI is used to generate or assist with player-facing artwork and illustrations, backgrounds, promotional images and logos, narrative and dialogue, encyclopedia text, localization and store-page copy. The developer selects and integrates the material into the released game. This is pre-generated content: the game does not generate content or code with AI during play and does not connect to external AI services.
We used an AI assistant (Claude) during development. No image-generating AI was used, and the game contains no AI-generated images, music, sound effects or voices. Nothing is generated by AI while you play.
- 3D shapes: The puppet parts and board objects are built from simple geometric shapes by scripts that the AI assistant helped write. The developer reviewed and adjusted every result.
- Text and translation: In-game text was drafted with the assistant, and the Japanese and English versions were translated with its help. The developer reviewed and edited all text.
- Studio logo: Built from basic shapes as code written with the same assistant.
All sound effects and music are recorded and made by the developer.
Some game assets were created using AI generative tools. AI-generated visual assets were subsequently painted over, edited, and composited manually by the developer in Photoshop/Photopea. AI was also used to assist with localized text translations.
All visual assets, audio, text, and promotional materials in this game were created using generative AI tools. The developer selected, edited, refined, and integrated the generated content into the final game. The game does not use generative AI to generate content in real time during gameplay.
AI was used as a supporting tool during the development of this game. However, the original game idea and its underlying concept were created several years ago and were developed entirely independently of AI.
The entire project is being created by a solo developer with a university degree in Game Design. Over the years, several hundred hours of work, experience, creativity, and personal passion have gone into the concept, development, and realization of the game.
AI was used to assist with certain parts of the development process. This includes support with coding as well as some aspects of soundtrack and visual asset creation. Many of the visual assets were subsequently edited, refined, adapted, or partially recreated manually using image editing software to achieve the intended style and quality.
AI was also used as a supporting tool for written content, primarily to make minor improvements to texts written by the developer and to correct grammar and wording.
AI therefore serves as an additional tool within the development process. The original game concept, game design, creative decisions, final direction, and implementation of the game remain the work of the developer. Various sounds and some of the soundtracks used in the game were also created and composed by the developer.
Generative AI tools were used during the development of this game to help create some store artwork, user interface (UI) concepts, and cover designs. All AI-generated content was reviewed, edited, and finalized by humans. The game does not generate any AI content dynamically or in real time during gameplay.
Pre-generated AI tools were used to create selected voice-over performances and selected promotional artwork. All AI-assisted materials are reviewed, edited, and finalized by the development team before use. The game does not generate AI content during gameplay.
Some pre-made content was created with the help of generative AI tools and then edited by our team: parts of the key art and logo, some 3D models, some UI/ability icons, and some character voice lines. AI coding assistants were also used during development. Gameplay design and level design were done by the developers. The game does not generate any AI content live during gameplay.
FleetBane was created by a solo developer with assistance from generative AI tools. During development, these tools helped create and refine some visual assets, music, and written game content. All AI-assisted material was reviewed, selected, edited, polished, or substantially reworked by the developer before being integrated into the game. FleetBane does not use generative AI during gameplay and does not send player input or data to any AI service.
Stay With Me contains a limited amount of pre-generated content created with the assistance of generative AI.
Some visual assets, the loading screen artwork, and some voice lines for the characters Margaret and the child were created using AI tools.
The AI-generated content was further edited, processed and adapted by the developer before being integrated into the game.
All AI content is pre-generated during development. The game does not generate content using AI while running, and there is no live AI generation.
As a small indie team, we use generative AI to assist with coding and parts of our art workflow. All AI-assisted code is manually tested by our team before being included in the game. Our artists create the original concepts and visual direction, while AI is used as a supporting tool during the art process. All final artwork is manually refined and finished by our artists.
Some 2D artwork used in the game and on the store page was created with generative image tools and then selected, edited, composited, and integrated by the developer. This includes selected backgrounds, character or enemy illustrations, card-related artwork, logos, and promotional assets. The game does not generate new content from player input at runtime, and no generative AI system is used for gameplay decisions or player interactions.
As a solo developer, I utilized AI-assisted tools during the development process to help conceptualize and create select visual assets and audio elements. These technologies were used alongside traditional development methods to streamline production and bring the game's aesthetic vision to life.
Hold My Cargo is made by a three-person team at Favera Studio. Like many small studios, we use AI-assisted tools as part of our production pipeline — for exploring concepts and marketing artwork, speeding up parts of 3D asset, animation and texture work, drafting text and running automated testing. Every asset, animation and line of text that ships in the game is directed, reviewed, edited and approved by the team; nothing goes in unseen. The game does not generate any content at runtime — there is no live AI in Hold My Cargo, and no player data is sent to AI services.
