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.
This game was developed solo by an independent developer. Some UI visuals and artwork used for the Steam store page were created with the help of generative AI. Original sound effects were also created with AI assistance to match the game's atmosphere. This content is fixed and built into the game.
AI is not used to generate content in real time during gameplay.
This game's early development utilized local AI systems for generating initial ideas and imagery surrounding the stage layouts and the initial musical passages, then further edited manually through various pieces of software (Art software and DAWs + numerous VSTs).
The game's first trailer features images generated by artificial intelligence. The characters and map in the trailer, however, were created by our team and will also be used in the playable versions of the game.
In the process of creating some 2D prop assets, generative AI technology was used in an assistive capacity. Any such assets are subject to our production pipeline, where they will be reviewed and replaced by our art and development teams to ensure they meet our quality standards and creative direction.
AI Disclosure: Certain background textures, NPC portrait concepts, or promotional marketing assets in this game were generated with the assistance of AI tools.
Parts of the content that ships with Nightfall were created with the help of generative AI tools. Artwork: the main menu illustration, the six hero portraits, and the four boss portraits. Music: all five soundtrack tracks were generated with Suno. This content was reviewed and selected by us before release. All in-game sprites, tilesets, animations, visual effects and user-interface art are licensed, human-made assets. No content is generated by AI while the game is running.
AI is not used for any aspect of music creation or sound. And no actual game art was created with AI (Inventory items, decals, portraits, etc. All of that was fully painted by a human.)
AI was used for code work and project management. ONLY a small amount of the textures (less than 10) used in the world were created with the help of AI.
Generative AI tools were used during development to create some artwork, including character art, environments, and promotional images. These are pre-made assets. No content is generated by AI during gameplay.
I've been using Generative AI tools as part of development for things like programming assistance, troubleshooting, research, brainstorming, and some concept exploration.
ECHO//syntax is a work of mechanics made from love of the beat-em-up genre from CHROMAGEM. It is designed, directed, assembled, tested, and curated by me. I make the first and final decisions on the game's mechanics, characters, levels, visual direction, and overall design.
As a designer that's looking to get a particular feel and experience with this game, I'm looking through and making sure you're getting a good game to play and enjoy.
CyberSprawl: Survivors contains pre-generated visual art, written content, sound effects, and other assets created or assisted with generative AI tools, then curated and integrated by the development team. Generative AI also assists development, including code. No AI generates content during gameplay, and the game does not connect to external AI services while you play.
Crappy Corp uses a small amount of pre-generated AI content, all created
during development and shipped as fixed assets: the looping background
video on the main menu, and the game's achievement icons. Both were made
with AI image and video tools and then edited and finished by hand.
Parts of the game's code were also written with AI assistance.
Everything else is not AI generated. The 3D models, characters,
environments and animations are licensed commercial asset packs or made
by us, and all sound effects and music come from licensed sound
libraries. The in-game crew voice is Steam voice chat between real
players, not synthesized speech.
No AI content is generated while you play.
Generative AI tools were used during development to assist in the creation and refinement of selected visual, audio and promotional assets.
All AI-assisted content is reviewed and curated by the development team before being included in the game or its marketing materials.
We used AI tools during development: part of the source code was written with an AI
assistant, and part of the pixel art was generated with PixelLab. Everything was
reviewed, edited and tested by the developer by hand. The game generates nothing at
runtime — all content is fixed in the build and identical for every player.
The game uses pre-generated AI-generated voice acting for character dialogue, narration, and promotional trailer voice-over.
All AI-generated voice content is produced in advance and reviewed by the development team before being included in the game or its Steam store assets. No AI content is generated live while the game is running.
AI was used for some code generation and as part of a technique for cleaning-up of 3D scans. 3D scans were created of real lightguns using both a laser based scanner and photogrammetry, and then both models were combined using a frontier AI model for a final clean 3D scan results with higher quality game-ready topography and polycounts.
The key art was developed by hand by our art team but some AI generated content may have been included via store asses. A coding agent was used to help write features.
Pre-generated AI artwork was used for characters, enemies, bosses, environments, interface icons, and store and promotional artwork. These assets were selected, edited, and integrated during development. The game does not generate AI content during play or connect to external AI services.
Generative AI was used to draft text only: the in-game interface strings, the achievement names and descriptions, their translations into 13 non-English languages, and this store page. All of it was reviewed and edited by the developer before release.
No AI-generated images, audio or video are used. This game ships with no image or audio files at all — every shape, sound and note is produced by the game's own code at run time.
Nothing is generated while you play. The game makes no network calls and contacts no AI service.
Pre-generated AI content: TROPHY FLEET's visual assets and its synthetic character voice performances were produced using AI image and voice generation as a starting point during development. Every generated asset was then selected, chroma-keyed against a solid key background, retouched, resized and hand-aligned by the developer before shipping. Boss artwork is collision-aligned to gameplay: each visible weak point on a boss sprite corresponds to an actual targetable hitbox at that exact position. Source masters and shipped runtime assets are both retained in the project repository.
The soundtrack is not AI-generated. It consists of 39 CC0-licensed music tracks, curated per world and normalized to -16 LUFS, with full attribution shipped in the game's THIRD_PARTY_NOTICES file.
All game design, code, level authoring, enemy behaviour, boss mechanics and balance systems are the developer's own work.
The game generates no content while it is running. It sends no player data or prompts to any AI service or any other service, requires no network connection, and functions fully offline.
Generative AI was used during development to assist with in-game text and translations, under the developer’s direction. The game does not generate AI content during gameplay or connect to external AI services.
Generative AI tools were used throughout development to create all of the game's visual art assets and program code, as well as localization and promotional materials. All outputs were directed, reviewed, edited, tested, and integrated under the developer's supervision. The game does not generate AI content during gameplay or connect to external AI services.
Parts of this store page description, along with the in-game achievement names and descriptions, were drafted with the help of an AI assistant and then reviewed and edited by the developer. All artwork, animation, music, sound design, level design and gameplay content in Boomfrog was made by hand or generated procedurally in code. The game does not use generative AI while you play. Nothing in Boomfrog is created or altered by AI at runtime.
This game uses assets created with the help of generative AI. The generated material was selected and edited by the developer before being included in the game.
Some character voices in the game were generated using AI voice technology. AI was used only to generate pre-recorded character dialogue. No AI-generated content is created dynamically during gameplay.
Pre-generated content only. No AI runs while the game is played.
Some monster and boss sprites were generated with PixelLab (an AI pixel-art tool) and then hand-edited, cut into animation strips and cleaned up by the developer. A few background art pieces, such as arcade machine sheets and map-card thumbnails, were generated with Google Gemini and then reworked by hand. The music soundtrack was generated with Suno on a paid licence. Some store page art may be based on these assets.
All gameplay code, the level design, the rest of the sprite art, UI, sound effects and all text were made by the developer without generative AI. The game does not generate any content at runtime.
Generative AI tools were used to assist with some store marketing assets including capsule artwork, as well as a small number of in-game item icons and a loading screen. All AI-assisted assets were reviewed, edited and polished by hand before use and will be replaced at a later date.
