Where do games disclose AI use?

We trained an AI that helped us generate base pictures that we then used as source to create illustrations for blessings and some items ingame. All other illustration are original creation made by our artists.

There are two A.I. Minds within BQ. The first mind creates the content/visuals. The second mind interacts with the player in the form of attackable NPCs or friendly NPCs. But both minds never communicate with each other, and the first mind never communicates with the player.

Regarding AI usage: The game employs AI in only two areas 1. Character voice lines (disabled by default) The ultra-large script (800k words) makes authentic voice acting financially unaffordable for our small studio. 2. "Seek Answers" function in the game lobby’s Sosoth (NPC) interaction interface For entertainment purposes, we used AI chat. What we can guarantee: Beyond these, translation, scripts, design, art, animation, and other game components absolutely did not use AI.

The package image of this game was created using multiple AI tools. Part of the background image and background character: Created using Stable Diffusion and provided under the CreativeML Open RAIL-M license. Part of the logo design: Created by Sonic-Alpha using OpenAI's generative AI, "ChatGPT," under the paid "ChatGPT Plus" plan. No AI-generated elements are included in the main game or in-game content.

The original narrative of "My Poodle's Diary" is inspired by true events. AI was utilized to enhance the text, generate visual artwork, and provide narration, ensuring a polished and engaging experience. Despite this technological integration, each chapter has been meticulously crafted by hand to preserve the authenticity and emotional depth of the story.

The game and Steam store page both use translations generated by Ai. All other content and the complete devlopment process do not feature any Ai content or assistance.

art/music

Some of the images in the Intro Cinematic are AI generated. Some of the VO for the characters are AI generated.

Promotional content for the game can include AI generated content.

This game contains user-generated content, which may contain AI generated stuff. We don't AI generate anything.

Some minor marketing material

Our team uses AI tools to help develop some in-game content.

Some visual and written elements—such as portraits, item icons, and quest text—were created or enhanced with the help of AI tools. These were based on original hand-drawn assets and carefully refined to match the game's overall style. The majority of in-game visuals remain fully handcrafted.

There are some AI generated paintings found inside the main house.

Players can generate unique textures and game assets inside the game based on voice input

AI-generated images are used for the backgrounds of the Story Event Phases.

AI was utilized as a tool during the creative process to enhance the storytelling and dialogue. All other aspects of the game’s content were created manually.

This game includes a limited number of AI assisted graphical assets.

Procedurally generated AI asteroids still in pre-alpha, we may need to relay on more AI generation to complete the episode.

Generation of Textures and Icons offline. Training of Deep Learning Models for Image Generation. LLMs for Coding, Spelling Correction and Translation.

Some of our card art was produced with AI-generated images which our artists painted over and edited before animating the finished card. Some older marketing and website material has been AI-generated as well.

Aura Guidance system delivers generated knowledge based on real Rookie Help questions and answers.

This game may contain parts of Audio and / or Artwork customized with the help of AI Generation derived from Art we own commercial rights to use, or artwork done by our studio.

AI tools were used to pre-generate a marching song heard during one of the sequences in late game.

We use AI to localize the main game interface and texts

Certain in-game Icons and textures may be generated with AI.

AI-Powered Cinematics & Immersion To bring the world of The Hive Pandemic to life, we’ve integrated cutting-edge AI technology to enhance both visuals and audio. 🎙️ AI Voice Generation – Leveraging Eleven Labs, we crafted realistic, emotive voice performances that breathe life into our characters, from the cold directives of corporate leaders to the haunting whispers of the Hive. 🎵 AI-Generated Music & Soundscapes – Using Suno, we designed dynamic, immersive soundscapes that evolve with the game’s intense action and eerie mind sequences. 🎨 AI-Assisted Cutscenes – Our art editor, combined with AI enhancements, has helped create stunning cinematic sequences, blending hand-crafted art with AI-powered refinements for a truly unique visual experience. By combining traditional artistry with AI-driven tools, The Hive Pandemic delivers a deeply atmospheric, story-rich experience that blurs the line between technology and creativity—just like the world it portrays.

Static images during encounters have been generated using AI. We hope to change this in the future.

AI use is quite limited to speech-to-speech models, allowing us to voice act many characters. Fortunately, this voice is highly realistic since we actually do the acting ourselves, and use the AI to enhance it. Additionally, AI is sparingly used for some images, and then manually cleaned up and modified by a professional artist.

A portion of the Steam community assets and marketing materials are generated using AI.

The AI is used in one video in the steam and was used in videos between levels.

For images and loading screens only.

AI processes were used in creating some of the icons in game

Voice Acting (But this is just a template that we will later replace with real voice actors.)

This game was initially developed without using Artificial Intelligence. Later, I added scenes and images improved with Generative Artificial Intelligence. They are locally generated using Stable diffusion, without resorting to paying any generative AI company. Although paying them could have given me better tools and results, I decided not to pay for their use to support the claim of artists for fair royalties. (It is not possible to discuss such a complex issue here, but I will consider opening a discussion on the topic in the game forum, follow my game to be notified if it is created) Most of the artistic content in the game, mainly music, is compensated in various ways depending on the case to its artists. My original content is registered, but the images generated by AI are essentially treated as 'creative commons' and I consider them fanarts of my characters. All added scenes and backgrounds are of high quality and maintain good coherence, avoiding deformities in hands, eyes, etc., and without annoying or confusing shapes. All AI-generated images are generated, selected, and edited exclusively by me, the creator of the game, to reflect my original vision, previously inaccessible due to high costs. I have sought to include only select content that enriches the narrative and immersion of the game.

Localizations to languages with an in-game marking "BETA" (French, Spanish, Italian, Swedish) have been created using generative artificial intelligence.

A few images are generated by AI

Images have been generated for marketing , steam community items, storepage and in game menu images. Voice has also been generated

Generative AI is used for the English audio narration, loading screens and a small percentage of skill icons.

AI tools were used during the pre-production phase to generate concept art and visual references to help establish the game's atmosphere and mood. All final in-game assets were created or modified by our development team. No AI-generated content is created in real-time during gameplay.

Some Assets, Music, Voices, and Art

AI was used to help with translating content , generate visual ideas or content that our artists and content creators use later.

One of the Voice Actor's performances was digitally altered using AI tools.

Quick note: The capsule art is AI-generated as a temporary placeholder, but I’m already working with an artist to replace and upgrade it with final artwork.

Most of the illustrations and models in the game are original creations, while AI-generated images are only used for a few in-game objects
