Game logic, UI systems, audio management, and narrative engine code written in Python with PySide6.
How are you using it?
AI (Claude) was used as a coding assistant during development. The developer directed all features, reviewed all generated code, tested functionality, and made final implementation decisions. The AI assisted with writing and debugging code based on human specifications.
(AI was used as a coding assistant. All code was human-reviewed, tested, and approved before implementation. The game is offline single-player with no features that could enable malicious use.)
We have only used Gen AI for the purposes of creating and placing the Capsule Art of the game.
We will be replacing the capsule art with our in-house capsule art.
As a passionate two-person indie team with a $0 budget, we utilize advanced, paid AI tools to breathe life into our world. We use high-quality, expressive AI voice acting to deliver emotional depth to our characters, alongside curated AI art to enhance environmental storytelling. Every asset is carefully selected and integrated by hand to match our artistic vision without compromising on quality."
Generative AI tools were used during the development of this game to assist in creating background marketing materials and promotional store assets. Additionally, AI was utilized as a supportive tool for code optimization, bug-hunting, development consulting, and text localization. While the vast majority of the game's assets were created using traditional development methods, players may encounter a small number of AI-generated assets integrated within the game itself. No AI content is generated in real-time during gameplay.
Some images used in the game’s development and promotional materials were initially generated with the assistance of AI tools. These images were not used as final untouched AI output: they were reviewed, edited, adjusted, and finalized by human artists.
AI was used only as a production aid to speed up early visual exploration and reduce iteration time. It was not used to replace the work of human artists, but rather as part of a broader art pipeline that still relies on human direction, editing, and final approval.
This game's 3D environment was created with the help of AI-based 3D scene generation tools. Some marketing materials (trailer footage) were also created using AI image and video generation tools. No AI-generated content is created live during gameplay — all AI-assisted content was produced during development and is fixed at release.
Used AI to generate concept ideas and take care of tedious tasks to speed up preproduction.
All assets, including store images and thumbnails, are NOT AI generated.
Images provided to us by Patron supporters may or may not have been created using artificial intelligence.
One promotional artwork seen on the store page has been created with the help of AI tools. We are actively working on replacing it within the coming days.
AI tools were used to assist with code development, some in-game text, and marketing visuals. All game design, story direction and gameplay mechanics were created and reviewed by the developer. No AI-generated content is produced in real-time during gameplay.
Backswamps contains some pre-generated visual assets created with the assistance of generative AI, including certain textures and interface artwork. All AI-assisted content has been reviewed, curated, and integrated by the developer. The game does not generate AI content during gameplay.
To create realistic interrogation scenarios in this detective game, this game packages a local, offline LLM to serve as the brain of the NPC suspects. This allows the user to lead the investigation however they like. Generative AI was NOT used to create this game, but an LLM is featured as a main game mechanic in the form of freeform NPC conversation.
Generative AI was used as an assistive tool during development for selected visual assets, promotional materials, and text drafts. All resulting content was reviewed, edited, and integrated by the developer. The game does not generate content during gameplay and does not connect to third-party AI services.
Some of the graphical assets in this game were created using generative AI tools. This includes certain 3D models (characters and props), textures, background illustrations, and UI images; some of the key art on this store page was created the same way. All AI-generated assets were curated, edited, and placed by the developer, and no AI content is generated in real time during gameplay.
In the development process of this game, we utilized pre-generated AI tools as follows:
* 2D Assets (Backgrounds, Photos, Various Images): After generating base images using AI, we manually added, modified, and processed them before implementing them in the game.
* 3D Assets: AI generation was used for some 3D models, and the output models were then manually adjusted and processed before use.
* Audio: Generation AI tools (text-to-speech and speech synthesis) were used for some sound effects (SE) and character voices.
Please note that we did not use any live-generated AI systems that generate content in real time during game execution.
Some game text, procedural artwork, sound effects, and store page copy were created with AI assistance, then reviewed and curated by the developer. Character and enemy sprites are licensed, human-made pixel art. No content is AI-generated during gameplay.
This game uses generative AI tools to assist with voiceover production and localization. All AI-assisted content is reviewed and integrated by the development team.
Some promotional images and in-game 2D visual assets were created or edited with the assistance of generative AI tools. All final assets were reviewed and edited by our art team before inclusion in the game/store page. We have checked the content to ensure it does not include illegal or infringing material.
Generative AI was used to create various graphical assets featured in the game. These assets were selected, edited, composited and integrated by the developer as part of the game’s visual design, alongside substantial human creative direction, implementation and refinement.
This game includes some pre-generated artwork and sound effects created with the assistance of generative AI. These assets were reviewed, selected, and integrated by the developer during development. The game does not use live generative AI during gameplay.
Generative AI was used during development to assist in creating some 2D background artwork, character images, item artwork, UI assets, and concept art. These assets were reviewed, edited, adjusted, and integrated into the game by the developer. The game does not generate AI content during gameplay.
Some of the sound effects in this game were created using generative AI tools. AI-generated audio is edited and mixed by the development team before being used in the game.
We’re currently using AI-generated images for our Steam page as temporary placeholders. We plan to replace them with original artwork as soon as possible.
Generative AI tools were used during development to assist with the creation of some 3D assets, music, and draft visual materials. Character concepts were based on human-made sketches, and AI was used only for early draft exploration; the final in-game characters were created by humans. All AI-assisted materials were reviewed, edited, and integrated into the game by the developer. AI is not used to generate content during gameplay.
Generative AI was used to create marketing assets, including store capsules, library art, and banners. The AI was used to compose and refine visual compositions based on original in-game screenshots to ensure high-quality presentation in the Steam store. All core gameplay assets, including 3D models, textures, and code, were created manually without the use of AI.
Generative AI was used during development to create a limited number of in-game images and to generate translations for multiple languages. All AI-generated content was reviewed and edited as needed by the development team.
In-Game Text Creation and Translation: We use AI to create and translate text for in-game content and store descriptions.
Program Code Generation: We use AI to create and optimize the programming code that implements the game’s features and systems.
Sound Effect Generation: We use AI to generate sound effects used in the game.
We did use AI generated images, but human edited and perfected images for our Steam Store and logos. Static UI elements and backgrounds were also generated using AI, but again, human edited.
