We use generative AI tools during the pre-production phase to create specific pre-rendered assets for the final game build. Specifically, AI assistance was utilized to generate elements of the instrumental soundtrack, ambient sound effects, and select minor environment/prop assets within the game world. No AI content is generated live or dynamically during gameplay, and all assets have been thoroughly reviewed to ensure they do not infringe on existing copyrights.
Some 2D vector artwork and portions of game text/localization were created with the assistance of generative AI (Claude); all AI-generated content was reviewed by the developer
Ski Lines is a solo-developed indie game created with the help of generative AI tools. AI was used throughout production to support artwork creation, music and sound design, code assistance, prototyping, iteration, and marketing assets.
Every AI-assisted element was curated, edited, and integrated by the developer to fit the game’s minimalist ski-map aesthetic and gameplay vision. The use of AI helped accelerate production while preserving human creative direction, design decisions, quality control, and final authorship.
Some environment and concept art in Stick Together was created with the help of generative AI tools, then edited and approved by our team. All visuals are fixed at release, and players cannot generate their own AI content in‑game.
Some store page artwork (capsules, library images, and promotional visuals) was created with the assistance of generative AI tools and edited by the developer.
Select in-game art assets were also created with AI-assisted tools during development and integrated into the game as pre-made content.
Gameplay is built in Unreal Engine. In-game content is not generated by AI during play.
Generative AI was occasionally used to prototype assets and give ideas\reference for assets. It was also occasionally used to generate normal maps on textures I had created. Sometimes this had disastrous results.
Hearthfield's world is built in code and from CC0 model packs, and everything you
see in play is made by hand. Our Steam store art, the capsules, the icons and the
logo, was created with the help of AI image tools and then finished by us. We also
use an AI coding assistant while building the game, and AI help when drafting store
text. Our screenshots are always genuine captures from the real game. Nothing in
Hearthfield is generated by AI while you play.
Some graphical elements of the user interface (menus, icons, and buttons), as well as store page assets (capsule images, header, and screenshots containing generated elements), were created with the assistance of generative AI tools and manually reviewed and edited by the developer
During development, generative AI was used to assist in creating some of the game’s 2D visual assets and icons. All AI-assisted content was manually reviewed and curated by the developers, and modified where necessary before being included in the final version. AI was also used to refactor some early code that was not yet well-structured.
Generative AI was used during development to assist with the creation of certain visual assets, localization, and store page materials. All AI-generated content has been reviewed, edited, and integrated by the developer. The game does not generate content with AI at runtime.
This game was developed with the assistance of AI tools. Some visual and audio assets were created using generative AI tools, then reviewed, selected, and refined by the developer. Portions of the game's code were written with the assistance of AI coding tools under the developer's direction and review. Game design, systems, balance, and all final decisions are the developer's own. No AI content is generated live within the game.
Generative AI tools were used to create some static art assets, narrative text and promotional materials included within the game. All AI-generated content has been manually reviewed, edited and adjusted by our development team to ensure compliance.
Generated code is applied to:
Create some shaders (like smoke and vertex snapping)
Procedurally draw billboard objects like pins and balls.
Procedurally produce sfx like pin knock sounds.
Some Store art is temporary generative concept art.
In-game Graffiti is hand drawn and not a product of generative AI.
As a solo developer working with a limited budget, I used generative AI tools to help bring my vision to life and add more variety to the game. Specifically, AI generated 10-20 graphical assets and assisted in creating about half of the game's music tracks. The vast majority of the game (over 95%) - including all core design, programming, and mechanics was created entirely by hand.
I am a solo indie developer and programmer. Some of the 2D graphics in the game and its store materials were created with the assistance of generative AI, then reviewed, edited, and integrated by me. No generative AI is used during gameplay.
Generative AI tools were used during development to create selected pre-generated visual assets, including the application icon, HUD texture, Property Marketplace illustrations, and Legacy Vault artwork. Four background-music tracks were also created using Google Gemini. All AI-assisted content was reviewed by the developer and packaged with the game. Hero Investor does not generate AI content during gameplay or send player data to an AI service.
Pre-generated generative AI was used during development for selected static artwork and portions of player-facing writing and localization. All such content is fixed in the shipped build and was reviewed and edited during development. The game does not contact an AI service or generate content during play.
Generative AI tools were used during development to create pre-generated visual assets, UI graphics, in-game text, character content, fictional file contents, audio, and localization.

Generative AI Disclosure:
This game utilizes generative AI tools to assist in creating player-facing assets, including base visual artwork, narrative script drafts, and voiceover audio (via ElevenLabs).
All AI-assisted dialogue, visuals, and audio undergo significant manual editing, human curation, and design to ensure high production quality and artistic cohesion before shipping with the game. No live or dynamic generative AI is executed while the game is running.
We used Gemini AI during the development process to assist in generating some ambient background music tracks. Additionally, AI tools were used for minor assistance in refining some visual components and lighting enhancements for marketing assets. All components have been carefully curated, hand-edited, and integrated by the developer to comply with Steam's content policies.
Verilight incorporates generative AI as part of its development pipeline for creating draft artwork, music, text, and programming assistance. All AI-generated material is manually reviewed, edited, refined, and integrated by the developer before being included in the final game. Artwork is transformed into the game's pixel-art style, music is manually arranged and adapted for each biome, and code is reviewed and modified before implementation. The game does not generate AI content during gameplay and does not connect to external AI services.
Some of the music in this game was created using generative AI tools. All other content — art, animation, writing and design — is made without generative AI.
Pre-generated AI tools were used during development to create some 2D visual assets, including in-game sprites, the application icon, and promotional artwork used on the Steam store page. AI tools also assisted with some English and Japanese text and localization. All outputs were reviewed and, where necessary, edited by the developer before being included. The game does not generate AI content during gameplay and does not connect to external AI services.
Some character models, textures, animations, and visual props were created before release using generative AI tools, including Meshy image-to-3D, auto-rigging, and animation. Selected outputs were edited, integrated, and reviewed by the developer. Generative AI also assisted in drafting and refining portions of the Steam store-page text. The game does not generate AI content during gameplay and does not connect to external AI services.
Portions of this game's 2D artwork — character and enemy sprites, item and orb illustrations, backgrounds, UI decoration, and HUD icons — were created with the assistance of image-generation AI (GPT-image-2), working from the developer's own compositions, reference art, and prompts. Every AI-assisted image was individually selected, post-processed, and reviewed by the developer, and is tracked in an internal asset ledger. Store capsule artwork was produced the same way. Store screenshots are unedited captures of actual gameplay. Visual effects are generated procedurally by the developer's own code without AI. The game contains no AI-generated audio or music. Some in-game text was drafted with AI assistance and edited by the developer.
