Where do games disclose AI use?

Generative AI tools were used during development to assist with the creation and refinement of some visual assets, text, localization, and other pre-generated game content. All AI-assisted content included in the game has been reviewed and validated by the developer. The game does not generate AI content during gameplay and does not connect to external AI services.

The music, a few sound effects. And very few of the menus have been created using AI. I know that many communities hate games with AI. And yes, lads, I’ve used it. But I can assure you that 90 per cent of the game has been lovingly crafted by a developer.

Pre-generated AI content: Generative AI tools were used extensively during development to create and assist with artwork, game assets, music, written content, and promotional materials. AI-assisted development tools were also used. All content in the final game was reviewed and curated by the development team. The game does not generate AI content during gameplay.

Some of the 2D art and textures in this game were created with the help of generative AI tools. Generative AI was also used to assist with writing and translating parts of the in-game text. All AI-assisted content was reviewed and edited by the developer before release. No content is generated by AI while you play.

We used generative AI tools (such as Claude) during development to assist with creating certain in-game assets, textures, or text elements. All AI-generated content has been reviewed, selected, and integrated by human creators into the final game.

Only the background scenery is created with AI.

This game uses generative AI for some background images and landscape assets. All AI-generated materials are reviewed and edited by the developer before being used in the game. Generative AI is not used during gameplay, and the game does not connect to external AI services to generate content.

Some of the 3D props in this game — the ritual items players carry and place, and a few pieces of set dressing — were created with an AI-assisted 3D generation tool from text prompts. Every generated model was reviewed, cleaned up and integrated by hand before it shipped. Nothing is generated by AI while you play.

Artificial intelligence tools were utilized solely in the creation of certain promotional materials, including the game logo and Steam library artwork.

"This game uses generative artificial intelligence (AI) in the development process to assist with creating certain visual and audio assets."

The ship and part artwork was generated with AI, then hand-edited and traced by me into the sprites and collision shapes the game actually uses. Nothing generative runs while you play. There is no AI service wired into the build, and the game never calls one. The music is licensed from real artists, and the sound effects come out of a script I wrote. Neither is AI. I want to replace the AI art with work from real artists before Early Access ends. I am not going to promise a date for that, but it is what I am working toward.

Generative AI tools were used to assist in the creation of certain pre-generated 2D artwork and visual assets during development. AI-assisted artwork is reviewed, edited, and integrated by the development team to maintain the game's intended visual style and quality. No generative AI content is created live during gameplay

Hi everyone. I want to be open about how this game was made and why generative AI was used. Aika Was Supposed to Die began as a story that I wrote and developed over more than two years. The world, characters, dialogue, themes, and narrative direction were all written by me. I cared deeply about this story, and eventually I felt that a visual novel would be the best way to bring it to life. As an independent developer working with a limited budget, hiring a full team of artists is not financially possible for me right now. I greatly value human-made art and the work of professional artists. I am also a 3D artist who works with Unreal Engine, so this is something I genuinely care about. Rather than leave the story untold, I chose to use generative AI as part of the visual production process. The game’s images and video assets were created with the assistance of generative AI tools. However, I did not want that to become an excuse for delivering something careless or low-quality. In fact, having access to these tools encouraged me to be as ambitious as possible with the project. I created and refined a large number of images and animated sequences to give the game a richer and more cinematic presentation. Every asset was carefully directed, selected, edited, revised, and manually integrated into the story, with the goal of providing players with a cohesive, polished, and emotionally engaging experience. The writing, narrative design, scene direction, timing, editing, and final creative decisions were all handled by humans. Generative AI was used as a production tool, not as a replacement for authorship, creative direction, or care. No AI content is generated during gameplay. If the game becomes successful enough to support a larger production, I would love to work with professional artists on future chapters. Until then, this approach has allowed me to share a story that means a great deal to me while doing everything within my reach to make the final experience cohesive, personal, and emotionally meaningful. Thank you for giving this story a chance.

Generative AI was used to assist in creating certain 2D graphical assets / UI icons / background art in the game.

Generative AI tools were used during development to assist with the creation of some visual assets and development materials. All AI-assisted content was reviewed and integrated by the developer. No generative AI is used during gameplay.

The store page and library artwork (capsule images, library hero, and the game logo) were created using a generative AI image tool, then cropped, colour-corrected and composited by hand to meet Steam's asset specifications. No AI-generated content ships inside the game itself. All in-game visuals, audio, shaders and level layout are generated procedurally by the game's own code, or hand-written.

As an individual developer, during development of this game, AI tools were heavily used. I disclose this honestly and transparently. 1. In-Game Assets Illustrations & Art: Unit portraits and the opening cinematic illustrations were generated using AI image models, then manually curated, retouched, and unified in style. All assets were human-reviewed under strict art direction to ensure historical tone and consistency. Opening Cinematic: Subtle motion effects on the illustrations were produced with an AI image-to-video model and assembled by using the Remotion pipeline. Background Music: The soundtrack was generated by an AI music model in multiple takes, then human-selected, mixed, and mastered. Telegram Voice-overs: The historical telegram voice-overs in-game were synthesized by an AI TTS system. Each character's reference voice was human-approved through listening tests before use. 2. Development Assistance Code: Game code was written and debugged with the aid of AI coding assistants. All code was human-reviewed and validated through automated testing. Localization: The game supports Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, and English. The English text was AI-drafted and human-proofread. 3. What Is NOT AI-Generated Historical Text: The telegrams in-game are taken from historical archives, 34 are verbatim transcriptions of the original documents, and 12 were written based on the sources. They were not AI-generated. Terrain & Map: The battlefield map was procedurally rendered from real elevation data (SRTM), not generated by AI. Game Balance & Statistics: Troop strength, Unit Introduction, and values were researched and set manually from historical sources, cross-checked for accuracy and play balance.

AI Disclosure WinterCore is a solo-developed game created over four years. Generative AI was used during development to create a small number of visual assets and selected promotional artwork. All AI-generated assets were subsequently edited, refined, and adapted by the developer to fit WinterCore’s art direction and overall visual style. The game’s core design, programming, story, gameplay, and final implementation were created by the developer. The project also includes licensed assets and creative works from independent artists and creators, who are credited accordingly.

We use AI tools as part of our developer workflow, in some cases for generative textures, 2D or 3D placeholders, in other cases for actual designs to be used in the game, this can also be a mix of both.

Marketing Material

Generative AI tools were used during development to assist in the creation of selected background images, illustrations, character assets, UI assets, rhythm game music, and background music. These are pre-generated assets included with the game. No generative AI is used to create content during gameplay, and the game does not connect to external AI services while being played.

Some scenes cleaned up

Generative AI tools were used during development to assist with the creation of some character illustrations, visual art assets, and portions of the game’s code. All AI-assisted content was reviewed, edited, and integrated by the development team before being included in the final product. The game does not use generative AI to create content in real time during gameplay.

Generative AI tools were used during development to enhance and refine selected existing in-game artwork and music. These assets were not generated from scratch; AI was used only as part of the editing and improvement process. All AI-assisted outputs were reviewed and approved by the developer. The game does not generate AI content at runtime.

During the visual development process, I used generative AI tools (Leonardo AI, ChatGPT, etc.) to generate initial concept art and ideas. Using these concepts as a foundation, I manually redrew and refined every pixel in Aseprite, split them into layers for parallax effects, and converted them into functional game assets for Unity. — Esra Soner (Catstanbul's Developer)

Parts of this game were made with the help of generative AI tools. AI assistance was used for the source code, the in-game and store text, the store and library artwork, and the music and sound effects. Everything generated was reviewed and edited by the developer before it shipped. Nothing is generated while you play: the game ships fixed assets and makes no calls to any AI service.

Epoch Studio is a private writing and worldbuilding studio. When you ask it to, it can generate text suggestions and illustrations to help you develop your own manuscript. All generation runs locally on your own machine using bundled, permissively-licensed AI models — or optional cloud providers you connect with your own API key. Nothing is generated on its own: every suggestion is a deliberate action you take, and you review, edit, and decide what becomes part of your book. Your writing never leaves your device and is never used to train any AI model.

All AI-assisted content was reviewed and edited by the developer before inclusion. The game does not generate any content using AI at runtime, and no live AI features are present in the released product.

Some static art used OpenAI; no runtime AI.

AI was not used to make mechanics or maps AI was used to create placeholder images that will be removed before the full release of the game.

AI was used to create the full scores from chords and melody provided to create retro feel. All art and animations were drawn meticulously character by character using a personal editor I made, but I drew inspiration from generative AI to get the right feel or angles.

We use ai only for storepage assets

Visual Assets: As a solo developer, I use generative AI to create initial variations for scenery, textures, character sprites, and UI. No raw AI output ships in the game — every asset is hand-edited, composited, and cleaned up to match the game's aesthetic. Music: The soundtrack and ambient music are created with AI audio tools, then curated and sequenced into a cohesive, atmospheric score.

Shirt Happens! was made with the help of generative AI. We used it to write and review code, to bring the game's mechanics online, to support our UI work, to generate visual assets and reference images for our 2D and 3D art, to draft written text including parts of this store page, and as a sounding board for design ideas. Everything it produced was reviewed, edited and finished by us before it shipped.

Neural Defense was developed by a five-person indie team using a combination of hand-crafted work and generative AI tools. Generative AI was used during development to assist with music composition, concept art, portions of the game's code, and the editing and expansion of some narrative text. All final in-game assets — including 3D models, textures, and visual art seen during gameplay — were hand-crafted by the studio's artists. No content or code is generated live during gameplay; everything was created, reviewed, and finalized by the team prior to release.

Some UI designs in the game are generated using AI

Some user interface elements (including UI frames, buttons, panels, and HUD background art) were created with the assistance of generative AI image tools during development, then manually edited, composited, and integrated by the development team. Promotional artwork on the store page (capsule, library header/hero images) also used generative AI assistance and was human-reviewed before publication. No AI is used to generate content during gameplay.

We used an AI diffusion tool in Krita to help create the background for the small capsule shown in search results. Our artist then worked over it with several extra layers, a bit like matte painting. For now, it's a placeholder until our artist finishes the hand-painted version of the small capsule. The logo and the other capsule images were already hand-painted by our artist. The in-game portraits were also drawn by another artist on our team. We have a devlog on our website about how we made the capsule artwork and hero portraits, and we'll share the full process on the Steam Community soon too. The playtest build also includes a few placeholder assets made with AI tools in Krita. Our new UI artist is working on a new UI, so we'll be replacing those placeholders soon. As mentioned above, the hero portraits are also hand-drawn by our artist.
