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.
I'm a solo developer. Without AI tools, this game would not exist — the art, music, and copy would have been unaffordable to commission and impossible for me to produce alone. AI let me focus on what I actually built by hand: the game design, the mechanics, the 181 tomes, the scoring engine, the balance, the words.
What's AI-generated:
• Visual art (backgrounds, character portraits, tome/scroll/blessing illustrations, store page art) — generated with AI image tools, curated and selected by me
• Music — generated with AI audio tools, curated and selected by me
• Some flavor text and descriptive copy — drafted with AI assistance, edited by me
What's not AI:
• The game itself — every system, mechanic, balance number, character design, and core decision is mine
• The dictionary, the tile distributions, the scoring math, the run structure, the boss fights — hand-built
• The code — written by me with the help of AI assistants the same way any modern developer uses them
No AI runs at runtime. Nothing is generated for you on the fly during play. Everything you see was reviewed before it shipped.
AI tools are used in a limited capacity for language polishing and coding support. All story content, characters, and creative direction are created by the development team. No AI-generated voice acting, art, or music is used.
Some promotional and visual branding materials, including capsule artwork, logos, and application icons, were created or assisted using generative AI tools.
AI was used solely to assist with the English and Spanish translations, which were then manually reviewed by the developers. However, they may still contain errors. If you find any, please let us know.
This game was developed with the assistance of generative AI tools. AI was used during development to assist with code, audio, and visual assets. All AI-generated content was reviewed, edited, and integrated by the developer. No generative AI operates at runtime during gameplay.
Dead Sector's in-game rank insignia icons, app icon, and Steam store graphics were produced procedurally via custom Python rendering scripts (PIL and resvg) authored with AI coding assistance. The output is deterministic vector and raster compositing, not generative-AI imagery. No image, audio, or animation generation models were used in any content shipped with the game. Game design, mechanics design and logic are original developer work.
Some visual assets, store assets, localization drafts, and marketing materials for SEO OR DIE were created or enhanced with the assistance of generative AI tools.
All AI-assisted content was reviewed, edited, and integrated by the developer to match the game's final art direction, narrative tone, and quality standards.
The game does not use real-time AI generation during gameplay.
Cyber Spartan uses AI-generated content for select visual assets, including character expression artwork and some promotional materials. Core gameplay code, game design, and level design are human-directed. AI tools were used as a creative partner
throughout development.
Some visual assets, promotional images, and audio content for this game were created or assisted using generative AI tools. All AI-generated content was reviewed and edited by the developer before inclusion in the game.
This game uses generative artificial intelligence (AI) to create some of its visual art assets. Certain in-game images and illustrations were partially generated with the assistance of AI-based painting tools.
Kingdom of Ashes uses generative AI for select visual assets:
• Character portraits, enemy sprites, card illustrations, and background art were generated using Microsoft Copilot and then curated, composited, and refined by the developer for use in the game.
All gameplay code, mechanics, narrative text, and game design were created by the developer. No AI content is generated live during gameplay, and the game does not connect to any third-party AI service at runtime — all AI-generated visuals were finalized during development and ship as static assets.
Vertical capsule image (store and library) generated using Adobe Firefly.
All in-game content (sprites, music, sound effects) is human-created or licensed from human-made asset packs.
Based on the developer's original creative direction, AI tools were used to generate the game's store page capsule images, soundtrack, and the non-English in-game text translations. AI coding assistance supported programming during development.
Visual assets in the game, including static and animated artwork, were created using generative AI tools. Generative AI was also used during the creation of the game's music.
Partially. Galactic Tenebris Company believes in being transparent with the people who play our games. Here is an honest account of where AI tools contributed to this production:
— Some icons and UI elements, including weapon icons
— Organizing and structuring the scenario, narrative documents, and dialogue across the game's four regions
— Translation from Mr. M.'s private family dialect into English.
All 3D models were handcrafted by the developer. No textures were AI-generated. The music and sound effects were composed and not generated by AI tools.
Our position as a company is simple — we use AI only where we have no other means or resources available. Where human craft was possible, human craft was used.
Every creative decision — the story, the world, the characters, the quests, the writing — was made by the developer. The scenario and dialogues were authored by the developer and organised with AI assistance. The foundation of this game is firsthand experience. That part was not written by any tool.

Generative AI was used to create artwork for the game, including visual assets seen by players and/or promotional materials. All AI-generated artwork was reviewed, selected, and edited by the developer before inclusion. The game does not generate AI content live during gameplay.
Generative AI tools were used during development to assist with code, localization text, store page copy, and procedural geometric marketing assets. The game does not use live generative AI during gameplay. All AI-assisted content was reviewed, edited, and integrated by the developer.
This game was developed with assistance from generative AI tools. AI was used as a development aid for coding support, gameplay design iteration, text drafting, translations, store descriptions and creative concepting.
All AI-assisted content was reviewed, edited, selected, integrated and tested by the developer. The game does not use generative AI to create new images, audio, text or gameplay content in real time during normal gameplay.
We're a small indie team, and we used generative AI to help make some of the art in Last Ember — card illustrations, backgrounds, character portraits, and a few short animations. We also used it on a handful of sound effects. Everything you see and hear in the game was picked, edited, and signed off by us. The game itself doesn't run any AI while you play — what ships is what you get.

Tianmen Wenjian uses generative AI tools as part of its pre-generated production pipeline. Some final visual assets used in the game presentation, Steam store page, library assets, community assets, icons, and marketing images were created or refined with AI-assisted image generation, then reviewed, edited, cropped, and integrated by the developer.
The game does not use live generative AI during gameplay. Player input is not sent to an AI service, and the game does not generate new AI-created text, images, audio, or other player-facing content at runtime.
I used AI tools only to generate some assets, giving me the raw material I needed to build my game. Every creative decision — the story, dialogues, characters, gameplay, mechanics, world design, visual style, and overall direction — was created and decided entirely by me. AI did not write, design, or choose anything.
The game is built from my own ideas, my own decisions, and my inspiration from the games I’ve loved throughout my life.
This game uses generative AI during parts of development.
Generative AI was used to assist in creating character portraits, event illustrations, some walking graphics, background images, voice, icons, and parts of scripting.
All generated assets and code were reviewed, edited, and adjusted by the developer before implementation.
This game does not include live AI-generated content during gameplay.
Some cosmetic assets and sticker designs used in the game were created or assisted with the help of generative AI tools. All AI-generated content was reviewed and modified before being included in the final product.
"The game's graphics are a hybrid mix of AI-generated content, personal family photos, and royalty-free images from the internet. Google Gemini was used to generate graphics throughout the game, including background art for certain levels, as well as some characters, platforms, and traps. Depending on the level, players will see backgrounds made entirely of AI, pure photographic backgrounds, or a composite blend of personal archives and internet assets mixed with AI elements."
AI was used only for humorous and non-core elements of the game, such as trailer music, meme-style images, and similar comedic assets. The game’s logic, models, animations, gameplay systems, and other core production elements were created by humans.
