・Translated text in the following languages:
English, French, German, Italian, Spanish, Chinese (Simplified), Chinese (Traditional), Korean, Russian
・Generation of title screen background images
・Generation of images for some module icons
Pre-generated generative AI tools were used during development to create seven player-facing UI illustrations: two unlock-card images and five portraits used in the skill tree and event UI. The images were selected, post-processed where needed, and integrated by the developer. AI-generated visual reference art also assisted the design of the Dicker Typ character presentation and the AUTOMOP 3000 robot; their production 3D models, materials, and animations were not generated by AI. Some Steam store screenshots and trailer footage show this same in-game content. The game does not use generative AI at runtime and produces no live-generated text, images, audio, 3D assets, or other content.
During the development of this game, generative AI was used to assist in the creation of some 2D art assets and pre-generated sound effects. All AI-assisted content underwent manual review, modification, and integration by the developers. No content will be generated by generative AI during gameplay.

No AI content is generated during gameplay, and the game does not connect to external AI services. All shipped assets are reviewed, edited, and integrated by the developer before release.
CENIZA is created using AI tools under human creative direction. Pre-generated content includes environmental textures, interface artwork, game text and translations, promotional art, and assets produced through AI-assisted modeling, coding and audio workflows. The base game does not generate content with generative AI while you play and does not connect to an AI service. Mod authors may optionally use external AI tools; manual editing and conventional tools are equally welcome.
Junkyard Astronauts was developed with substantial help from an AI coding assistant (Claude), directed and reviewed by the developer. Specifically: the game's code was largely written with AI assistance; the 3D models, textures and yard layouts are produced by procedural generator scripts written with AI assistance; the sound effects are built from licensed, human-recorded sound libraries (Sonniss GDC bundles, Kenney) assembled and mixed by scripted tools written with AI assistance; the soundtrack is composed and rendered by a music engine written with AI assistance; parts of the store text and the achievement names were drafted with AI assistance. Everything was reviewed, edited and play-tested by the developer before shipping. No AI service is used during gameplay, and no content is generated at runtime. No AI-generated content imitates a real person or a third party's protected work.
AI tools were used in a limited capacity to support coding, early prototyping, and the creation of a small number of icons. All AI-assisted elements were reviewed and refined by us.
Deepworks was made with the help of AI tools. Some of the game's art and audio were generated with AI and then reviewed and edited by the developer, and AI assisted with writing code. Nothing in the game is generated by AI while you play.
I'm an indie dev with a day job. Using AI made building this game possible. I built this game for the fun of it and have no interest in paying thousands or even hundreds of dollars to artists for a little side hobby.
Some store visuals (capsule art) were created using AI image generation tools.
Game text translations for languages other than English/Turkish were done with the assistance of AI translation and manual review.
Cutscenes and the visual slides featuring dialogue were created with the assistance of AI.
Generative AI was used exclusively to assist in polishing the game's logo. All gameplay systems, code, and visual elements were developed directly by me.
Pre-generated AI content: TROPHY FLEET's visual assets and its synthetic character voice performances were produced using AI image and voice generation as a starting point during development. Every generated asset was then selected, chroma-keyed against a solid key background, retouched, resized and hand-aligned by the developer before shipping. Boss artwork is collision-aligned to gameplay: each visible weak point on a boss sprite corresponds to an actual targetable hitbox at that exact position. Source masters and shipped runtime assets are both retained in the project repository.
The soundtrack is not AI-generated. It consists of 39 CC0-licensed music tracks, curated per world and normalized to -16 LUFS, with full attribution shipped in the game's THIRD_PARTY_NOTICES file.
All game design, code, level authoring, enemy behaviour, boss mechanics and balance systems are the developer's own work.
The game generates no content while it is running. It sends no player data or prompts to any AI service or any other service, requires no network connection, and functions fully offline.
AI-assisted tools were used to help create some splash screen visuals and store page promotional artwork. All assets were reviewed and finalized by the developer before being included in the game and store materials.

Each Expansion Pack features its own world, Lore, characters, and adventures, creating a unique storytelling experience. The AI also generates creative scene descriptions and prompts that players can use as inspiration for creating images and videos. Because the experience is driven by player input, generated content may vary between playthroughs.
Some of this game's 2D graphics — including UI icons, part icons and mission cards — were created ahead of time with the help of AI image generation tools. Every generated asset was reviewed, selected and adjusted by the developer before being included.
No content is generated by AI while the game is running. The 3D models, stages, effects and all game logic were produced by scripts and by hand, not by AI.
Generative AI was used as a development tool for this game. An AI assistant helped with programming, game design iteration, and text translation, always under the developer's direction and review. Some 3D models, such as mech parts, are based on assets created with generative AI tools and then adjusted and integrated by the developer. No content is generated by AI during gameplay: enemy behavior is not generative AI, but the same deterministic node-based algorithms that players build themselves.
Laryen includes an optional in-game AI companion named Laria. When a player asks Laria a question by voice or text, her answer is generated at runtime by an AI language model, grounded in Laryen's own game data (monsters, hunting grounds, equipment, drops and progression). Laria answers questions about the game only. She does not generate artwork, music, or content that is shared with other players, and using her is never required to play.
