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.
The game's art assets (tile, monster and item sprite atlases) were produced during development using OpenAI's image generation service. We then processed the output ourselves into transparent PNGs and assembled them into atlases, which ship as static assets inside the build. The game does not call any AI service at runtime and contains no live-generated content. Every generated image was manually reviewed and corrected before being added to the atlas. Apart from the art, the code, game design, balance and text involve no AI-generated content.
Generative AI was used to assist in creating some of the 2D artwork used for this game's store page and marketing assets (store capsule art and icon bases). All such assets were reviewed, edited and composited by the developer. The game itself does not generate content with AI at runtime.
Some artwork and marketing assets for Fallen Crowns were created with the assistance of generative AI tools. All AI-assisted assets were reviewed and edited by the developer before inclusion. The game does not use AI to generate content live during gameplay.
A Light in the Gloam uses pre-generated AI content. Nothing is generated while the game is running, and the game makes no network calls of any kind.
Visual art: all in-game art was generated with OpenAI's image model (gpt-image-1) from prompts written by hand, then processed by our own scripts, which downscale it, quantise it to a fixed palette and trim it before it is placed in the game. This covers 14 character portraits, 43 enemy and boss sprites, 63 item icons, 27 wall, floor and ceiling textures, 10 dungeon props, 21 achievement emblems, and 14 town and title backdrops. The store capsules and the client icons are crops of the title-screen generation rather than new images.
Music and sound: all 14 music tracks were generated with ElevenLabs' music model and all 47 sound effects with ElevenLabs' sound-effects model, both from written prompts and both post-processed by our own scripts for level and length. There is no voice acting and no synthesised speech anywhere in the game.
Writing and translation: the game's text, meaning item and monster descriptions, dialogue, menus and the story, was written with the assistance of a large language model and then edited by hand. The Brazilian Portuguese translation was produced the same way and reviewed against the English.
Frontier was conceived, designed, directed, and extensively play tested by a solo developer. Generative AI was used as the primary production tool to implement that vision, including programming, artwork, audio, writing, and other game assets. Every aspect of the game was developed through an iterative human-directed process, with the developer specifying requirements, reviewing results, requesting revisions, making design decisions, integrating systems, and personally testing and approving the final content. No generative AI is used during gameplay.
Deep Lantern contains some pre-generated visual assets created or assisted with generative AI, including certain textures, interface or illustrative visual elements, which were then reviewed, edited, and integrated manually by the developer.
The game does not use live generative AI during gameplay, and players cannot generate content in-game using AI.
Some promotional artwork on this store page was created using generative AI tools. All in-game assets (characters, environments, effects) are original or licensed third-party content.
Hero Chains of Destiny includes pre-generated content created with the assistance of generative AI tools during development. This includes selected artwork, music, and sound effects. All generated content is reviewed, curated, and approved by the developer before being included in the game.
Some of the game's artwork, including characters, monsters, items and backgrounds, was created with the help of generative AI tools and then edited and refined by our team; none of it is used as raw AI output. Parts of the in-game text and translations were also produced with AI assistance. No AI content is generated during gameplay.
The game contains pre-generated artwork and AI-assisted narrative/localization created during development under human direction.
The assets were iteratively selected, composed, edited and reviewed for this project.
Prompts requested generic original fantasy subjects and did not request existing characters, logos, or the imitation of a named living artist.
No generative AI service runs during gameplay and players cannot submit prompts.
Most of the game's visual art and sound was pre-generated with AI tools and then selected, edited and placed by the developer: the dungeon panoramas, room props, floors, town and building plates, character portraits, walk and combat sprite sheets, monster, boss and villager sprites, item, skill and stack icons, combat and reward effects, and the store page art were generated with the FLUX.1 image model through fal.ai and animated with AutoSprite; the sound effects, ambience beds, voice barks and music were generated with ElevenLabs. Every generated file, the tool that made it and the prompt that asked for it are recorded in the game's files (assets/README.md and assets/PROMPTS.md). All game text, design, rules and code are written by people. Nothing is generated while you play: the game contains no live AI generation and calls no AI service at runtime.
Pre-generated AI content includes equipment illustrations, skill icons, clothing surface textures, short English character-selection voice lines, and Steam capsule and library artwork. AI tools also assisted with store-page text and translations. The game does not generate AI content or connect to AI services during gameplay.
A handful of key art pieces, concept illustrations, and store-page graphics were generated with AI image-generation software to help communicate. This use of AI is limited strictly to marketing materials.
Some shipped artwork, visual effects, interface assets, and audio were created or modified with generative AI tools during development. All such content is pre-generated, selected and reviewed by the development team, and included as fixed game assets. The game does not generate AI content while running.
Dawn of Irkalla includes pre-generated AI-assisted content used during development, including some 3D models, images, and code assistance. The game's level design, story, lore, gameplay, music, and many other assets were created by us or sourced from licensed third parties.
Some of the artwork in this game was created with the assistance of generative AI tools. This includes character and enemy models, visual effects, skill icons, and key art. All generated material was reviewed, edited, and integrated by the developer. No AI-generated content is produced while the game is running.
This game was created as a personal challenge to myself to see if i could solo dev a game and release it the same day as GTA 6.
I wanted to see what the highest quality final release consumer ready product I could create with only 69 days and a 200 dollar per month codex pro plan as the budget.
While the majority of implementation and art assets were llm derived, the architecture, game design, card concepts and overall vision of the project remain the product of my own efforts.
Generative AI tools were used throughout development: the game's code and its in-game text, the paintings, icons and interface art, the 3D models, and the music and sound effects. Everything was reviewed, edited and tested, and ships as fixed content. Nothing is generated while you play: the game runs no model and makes no network call.
Generative AI tools were used during development to create pre-rendered assets: creature and building artwork, icons, 3D models and parts of the store graphics. All assets were selected, edited and integrated by the developers. The game does not generate any content with AI while it is running.
Some 2D artwork in Nine Lives Deep including select UI elements, item icons, and environment backgrounds was created with the help of generative AI image tools during development. All such content is static and fixed at the time the game ships; nothing is generated live during gameplay, and the game does not connect to any AI service while you play.
Due to budget constraints, I’ve had to rely on AI to create the soundtrack and translate the game into languages I don’t speak (all languages except English and Spanish).
I know it’s not the same as working with professional musicians and translators, and I’d really like to change that in the future. If the game is well received and gets enough support, I’ll be more than happy to invest part of that support into working with professionals and replacing these AI-generated elements.
Thank you for giving the game a chance and for supporting this indie project.
Some music tracks included in the game were created using generative AI tools by third-party music providers. These tracks are used under licenses that permit their inclusion in commercial projects.
The game's visual assets, 3D environments, characters, animations and other artwork are primarily human-created assets, including original work and commercially licensed asset packs or free asset packs.
The game does not generate AI content while running.
Generative AI tools were used during development to assist with the creation of some pre-generated visual assets. AI tools were also used as development assistance for programming. No content is generated by AI during gameplay.
Some 3D models in the game were created with the assistance of generative AI tools. The generated models were used as part of the art production process, with their final appearance, materials, placement, and artistic direction determined by the developer.
Some of the game's artwork was created with the help of an AI image model and then curated, edited and composited by the developer: companion and character portraits, boss and zone art, and the store page key art. Some in-game item and companion descriptions and patch notes were drafted with AI writing assistance and reviewed by the developer. The game does not generate content with AI while you play and does not connect to any AI service during gameplay.
AI was used throughout development for assistance with artwork, audio, code, and prototyping, as a tool, not a magic wand. Everything is directed, edited, assembled, and ultimately blamed on one questionably qualified human developer.
No AI runs during gameplay. It already costs me enough when the game isn't running.
The token bill remains undefeated.
The content of Dark Dice Dungeon was produced with the help of generative AI tools: the illustrations, the music and sound effects, the in-game writing, and the English and Spanish translations. All of it was then selected, edited and assembled by hand by the developer. Nothing is generated while you play: the game ships with fixed assets and never connects to any service.
