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.
AI tools were used during development to assist in creating portions of the game's code, text, and 2D artwork, including some store page assets. All AI-assisted content was generated during development and reviewed by the developer. The game does not use AI to generate any content at runtime.
The game features hundreds of unique collectible cards. As a solo developer, creating every card from scratch would be extremely time-consuming, so the majority of the collectible card artwork was generated using AI. This allows more time to be spent improving the game’s core feel and other key systems. The cards will continue to be revised throughout development.
Generative AI was used to assist in creating certain store assets. Additionally, some in-game enemy artwork was generated from developer-created mockups.
This game's code was written with the assistance of generative AI. No AI-generated artwork or audio is used.
The visuals are hand-coded by the developer and the music is procedurally generated. AI also assisted with some in-game text and its French translation.
I built Orbisphere as a solo developer using AI tools under human direction. The soundtrack was created with generative AI music tools, with each track directed, selected, and edited by me. In-game vector artwork was authored with AI assistance from my terrible MS Paint references and designs. All game design, writing, systems, and balance are my own work.
Heartwood Incremental was made by a solo developer working alongside an AI assistant (Anthropic's Claude). The AI helped write the game's code, including the code that procedurally draws its pixel-art sprites, tree, and icons, and helped draft written content such as upgrade, achievement, and store text. Everything was directed, reviewed, and refined by the human developer, and hand-checked before release. No generative AI runs while you play: nothing is created on your device at runtime, and all art and text are fixed in the build.
Generative AI was used during production of some visual and audio assets. All generated material is selected, directed, edited, and integrated through a human-led creative process. The game does not generate content with AI during play.
Don't worry, this game is made by an experienced developer. It's fun and good quality. Give it a try!
That being said: AI was used to facilitate development. For example: it was used to facilitate coding and localization.
Certain visual elements and marketing assets for the game were produced with support from generative AI tools. Every AI-assisted asset was carefully selected, edited, and adjusted by the developer to match the game’s intended art style and overall quality.
As a solo developer, I unfortunately cannot afford to hire artists or creators, so the media in my game is a mix of AI-generated and hand-edited/crafted. I would love to have my assets professionally made, but the cost of somewhere around two thousand icons, portraits, and other media assets would be far more than I can afford as just some guy working alone. I've done my best to create the best art and sounds with the tools I have access to, trying extremely hard to make things you will enjoy. If this game were to ever be successful enough, I'd love to hire professional artists one day to remake my assets (and for my future games). I thank you for your understanding, and I hope the game is good enough to get me there eventually!
Monotony Idle is made by a two-person team working alongside AI tools, and we want to be straightforward about where that shows up.
Some in-game text, imagery, and data were drafted with AI assistance.
Our store page materials - capsule art, store text, and trailer - were built from the game's real assets. All screenshots and trailer footage are captures of actual gameplay, not AI-fabricated imagery.
Live-generated content: none. The game does not use AI at runtime - nothing is generated while you play, and the game never sends your data to any AI service.
Every AI-assisted asset was directed, reviewed, and approved by a human before shipping.
This game uses AI-generated artwork for store page assets, including capsule images,
promotional graphics, and character illustrations. The game logo and visual marketing
materials were created with the assistance of AI image generation tools.
No AI content is generated during gameplay — all in-game content is pre-authored.
No third-party AI services are connected during gameplay.
Kaironia uses generative AI tools during the development process to create pre-rendered assets. Specifically, AI-assisted tools were used to help create background music tracks, certain 2D environmental icons and images, and to assist with multi-language text localization. None of these assets are generated dynamically or live during gameplay.
Generative AI was used for creating Store page assets and in game items. Generated content was then manually edited to remove any anomalies and match look and feel of overall game's theme.
Although AI tools were used during the making of this game for efficiency, we have put our love, care, and effort into every part of it so players can experience the game as intended.
AI was used only as a support tool where helpful, and its use was kept minimal. All creative decisions, final content, and gameplay direction were reviewed and shaped by the developer to make sure nothing takes away from the intended player experience.
Generative AI tools were used during development to create and manually refine some illustrations, store page artwork, and music tracks, as well as to assist with text preparation and localization. The game does not generate any AI content in real time.
Some of the visual art in this game including card, Relic, and background artwork was created with the help of generative AI tools during development.
All AI generated content was reviewed, curated, and edited by the developer to fit the game's style and quality standards.
AI Disclosure:
Generative AI was used for the following elements of this game:
・Programming: General game systems
・Graphic Assets: UI and character variations
Some of Tapis's visual assets were created with the help of generative AI tools. These elements are produced ahead of time, then art-directed, selected and reworked by the studio to fit the game's world. No AI generates any content while you play: the gameplay, rules, balancing and all systems are entirely designed and hand-validated.
Some visual assets and portions of the game's development were created with the assistance of generative AI. AI was used as a creative and productivity tool during development, with all generated content reviewed, edited, and integrated by the solo developer.
Some graphical assets (capsule images, etc.) and music tracks
were created using AI generation tools.
No AI generates content in real time during gameplay.
All AI-generated materials were reviewed and selected by a human.
The story and game design are an original creation of the developer.
AI was used as a tool to produce certain fixed visuals (store page, logo, illustrations),
in order to faithfully represent the game's artistic vision.
No content is AI-generated during gameplay.
Code: Generative AI tools were used to create foundational logic and structural boilerplate, which was then heavily edited and modified manually.
Audio: Generative AI was used to draft the baseline tracks for the main menu and gameplay music, which were subsequently edited by hand.
Marketing Text: AI tools were used to outline the initial structure of the store page descriptions before being manually rewritten.
Generative AI was only utilized to assist with programming and coding during development. No AI-generated assets, such as images, graphics, or audio, were used in this game.
Generative AI tools were used to assist with initial translations of localization texts and as a starting point for a limited number of visual concepts. All AI-assisted translations were manually reviewed and edited. The visual concepts were substantially reworked and adapted by the developer to match the game’s original art style before being included in the final game.
During the development of this game, AI tools were used solely as a coding assistance aid — primarily to help identify and fix minor bugs, and to assist with small code corrections and improvements. AI was not used to generate any content experienced by the player, including visual assets, audio, narrative or in-game text. All artwork, sound, and written content presented to the player are original and human-created. The AI usage disclosed here is limited to development-side coding assistance and does not appear as generated content within the final player-facing experience.
AI tools were used during development.
The interface translations (English, French, German, Italian and Portuguese) and the log translations were generated with AI assistance, under the developer's direction and with human review. The game does not generate AI content at runtime.
Some of Purrgeist's visual assets (such as backgrounds and base artwork) and some marketing materials were created with the help of generative AI tools (e.g., Google Gemini) as a starting point, then reviewed, edited, and reworked into pixel art by the developer. This is pre-generated content — the game does not generate any AI content while you play, and everything is human-reviewed.
This game uses AI-generated voice audio for the narrative cassette recordings, and some AI-assisted sound effects. All content was reviewed and edited by the developer.
This game and its store page assets utilize pre-generated AI technology (such as assisting in the creation of character art, background assets, and promotional images).
