Some marketing materials for this game were made with generative AI: the trailer's narration uses an AI text-to-speech voice, and parts of this store page were drafted with AI assistance.
Nothing inside the game is AI-generated. The soundtrack is human-composed music licensed for commercial use, all artwork and logos are drawn programmatically by the game's own code, and every screenshot is captured from real gameplay. The game generates no AI content while you play.
Pre-generated generative AI was used during development to assist with visual artwork, music, sound effects, spoken audio, narrative and dialogue, and portions of the game code. The developer directed, reviewed, selected, edited, arranged, tested, and integrated the final content. No generative AI content is created while the game is running.
This whole game exists because I wondered whether, with these tools, I could actually make one.
Generative AI tools were used to create assets that ship with the game. The 3D ship and enemy models were generated with Meshy AI from my own 2D concept art, and AI tools assisted with in-game text, audio, and parts of the store page and marketing materials.
The design, code and balance are mine — the wave generation, the ship and weapon tuning, the modification link-set system, the campaign structure. Seventeen worlds' worth of hand-tuned numbers.
I'm a solo developer with a full-time job and three kids. The answer to the question turned out to be yes, and this is it.
Some 3D assets in this game were created with the help of AI generation tools, then edited, retextured and integrated by hand. Parts of the written text, including store page copy and in-game text translations, were drafted with AI assistance and reviewed by the developer. No content is generated live while you play, and no AI-generated voice acting is used. Everything is created and checked before release.
This game uses generative AI tools to help create some of its visual assets, such as background art, characters, and the logo. All such assets were generated during development and were reviewed, curated, and hand-adjusted by the developer before being included in the game. No generative AI runs while you play, and no player input or personal data is ever sent to any AI service.
Some assets in this game were created using generative AI tools. The theme song and its stem tracks were generated with Suno and edited by the developer. Some 3D models (the pursuer, corpse and flower props) were generated with Meshy. Some in-game images, such as photographs and posters, were created with image-generation AI. All program code was designed and implemented by the developer, with AI coding assistance. The game contains no live AI-generated content.

Generative AI Usage
- Reference for some backgrounds and CG compositions
- Editing and proofreading of some text
- Assistance with English and Japanese localization
All final content was created, reviewed, and/or revised by the developer.
Operation: Horumus is a "vibe coding" experiment. Most of the game's content — code, game design, pixel art, sound effects, procedural music, narrative writing, and all four language localizations (English, Korean, Japanese, Simplified Chinese) — was developed with extensive use of generative AI tools, under the developer's direction. Every creative and technical decision was made by the developer, and all AI-generated output was reviewed and curated before inclusion.
No AI is invoked during gameplay. The game runs entirely offline and makes no calls to external AI services.
This is a parody experiment, and the use of AI is part of the experiment itself. We disclose it here so you can decide whether that approach is interesting to you.
Portions of this game's artwork were created with generative AI tools under human direction, curation, and editing — including aircraft counter sprites, scene illustrations, character portraits, achievement icons, and some store/marketing images. The store trailer's narration is AI-generated voiceover. Some code was developed with AI assistance and human review. The game does not generate any content with AI while running.
Some in-game text and store page copy was drafted with an AI assistant and edited by the developer. No generative AI runs in the game or generates content at runtime. All artwork is programmatically composited from photographs taken by the developer.
AI helped with some writing, troubleshooting, localization, and the Steam store page. All art, animation, music, sound effects, and level design were created entirely by me. I reviewed and edited everything AI assisted with, and several translations were also checked by native speakers. The game does not generate AI content during gameplay and does not connect to any external AI services.
Generative AI tools were used as an editorial and localization assistant for some written content in the game and on the Steam store page. All such text is reviewed, revised, and approved by the development team. The game does not use generative AI at runtime.
This game uses generative artificial intelligence in part to improve development efficiency.
It is primarily utilized to assist with programming implementation and development tasks, as well as for generating BGM melodies and assisting in the creation of in-game messages.
However, all final decisions regarding game specifications and quality control are made by the developer, and only AI-generated content that has been reviewed and adjusted by human hands is used.
Pre-rendered content: 2D artwork (character sprites, backgrounds, marketing art) and music were created with the assistance of generative AI tools, then manually curated, edited and composited by the developer. The game does not generate any content at runtime (no live AI).
Parts of this game's source code and in-game text were produced with the assistance of generative AI tools during development.
The planet itself is not AI-generated. It is built by conventional deterministic algorithms : noise functions, Voronoi tessellation, plate tectonics, erosion and climate simulation (the same family of techniques used in procedural generation for decades. Every world is reproducible from its seed).
No AI runs while you play, and the game never connects to an external AI service.
Generative AI tools were used to create part of this game's visual assets: 2D unit and building sprites, terrain textures, background art, and 3D models. Some store page and marketing images were created the same way. Every generated asset was selected, edited and assembled by hand, and the game generates no content at runtime.
