During the development of this game, most of the code was generated with AI assistance; however, I personally carried out extensive debugging, modifications, and integration to ensure its stability. All creative content in the game — including the art, music, design, and writing — was handcrafted by me independently. Some sound effects are sourced from publicly available resources on free-to-use commercial websites, while others were made by me personally.
Generative AI was used to create some marketing assets, specifically the store capsule images and page banners. The core game content, including the code, levels, character pixel art, and music, has been traditionally developed to ensure a consistent and high-quality solo-developer experience.
Some promotional visual assets used on the store page (marketing illustrations) were created with the help of generative artificial intelligence tools.
The game content itself (gameplay, in-game graphics, levels, mechanics, and logic) is entirely created by humans, with no AI-generated content used in real time or in pre-rendered gameplay.
Generative AI tools were used during development to assist with portions of debugging and gameplay balancing. All AI-assisted output was reviewed, modified, tested, and integrated by the developer. The game does not connect to generative AI services or generate AI content during gameplay.
Rockinforged is a studio that develops games with an AI-assisted production pipeline. Generative AI tools are used across development — including 2D art, cinematic and video footage, sound, localization, store page text, and marketing materials — always under the developer's direct authorship, curation, and review. The game does not generate any content with AI at runtime.
This game used AI generated content in early phases for help with game art. This content was later modified or changed completely to achieve the creative vision of the developer.
Generative AI tools were used during development to assist with some pre-generated 2D artwork, text editing, localization, and development support. All AI-assisted content was reviewed, edited, and approved by the developer before being included. The game does not generate AI content during gameplay.
This work is fully developed and produced with the assistance of AI: character animations, scene maps, interface UI, sound effects, music and other art and audio materials are all generated by AI; The core gameplay mechanism of the game relies on manual planning to complete the development outline, and the implementation of segmented content and function building are all assisted by AI to complete the development work.
Some store page artwork (capsules, library images, and promotional visuals) was created with the assistance of generative AI tools and edited by the developer.
Select in-game art assets were also created with AI-assisted tools during development and integrated into the game as pre-made content.
Gameplay is built in Unreal Engine. In-game content is not generated by AI during play.
During development, generative AI was used to assist in creating some of the game’s 2D visual assets and icons. All AI-assisted content was manually reviewed and curated by the developers, and modified where necessary before being included in the final version. AI was also used to refactor some early code that was not yet well-structured.
Generative AI was used as an assistive tool during development and for localization support. All such content was reviewed and edited by the developer before inclusion. The game does not generate AI content live during gameplay.
We used Gemini AI during the development process to assist in generating some ambient background music tracks. Additionally, AI tools were used for minor assistance in refining some visual components and lighting enhancements for marketing assets. All components have been carefully curated, hand-edited, and integrated by the developer to comply with Steam's content policies.
Verilight incorporates generative AI as part of its development pipeline for creating draft artwork, music, text, and programming assistance. All AI-generated material is manually reviewed, edited, refined, and integrated by the developer before being included in the final game. Artwork is transformed into the game's pixel-art style, music is manually arranged and adapted for each biome, and code is reviewed and modified before implementation. The game does not generate AI content during gameplay and does not connect to external AI services.
Crownsink is a hand-crafted game built the modern way: the developer writes and directs the code with the support of AI tools, while every sprite, sound and note of music springs from the game's own hand-written algorithms.
This game does not generate or modify content at runtime.
A small portion of assets (around 20%) was made with the help of some generative AI tools during development.
All such assets were manually edited, reviewed, and finalized to ensure originality, quality, and compliance with copyright and safety standards.
Generative AI tools were used during development to assist with programming and code generation, and to create or refine certain pre-generated visual assets, including promotional artwork and selected in-game UI and art assets. All AI-assisted code and assets were reviewed, tested, and edited by the developer before inclusion. The released game does not generate content or code during gameplay and does not connect to external AI services.
Sia's art and sound - her sprites, the outfits, the tarot cards, the item and monster icons, the sound effects - were produced with the help of generative AI tools and then edited and assembled by hand. The store images were made the same way. The game's text was written in Korean by hand; the seven other language translations were AI-assisted and reviewed by a human.
Nothing is generated while you play. The game ships as fixed image, sound and text files and never contacts an AI service.
Breathtoll includes some AI-generated content, all of it created during development. Nothing is generated live while you play.
Cinematic cutscenes: the video imagery and animation are AI-generated.
Creatures: the 3D creature models began as AI-generated base meshes and were hand-refined through multiple Blender passes (cleanup, retopology, and texturing) before use in the game.
Store and marketing art: some capsule and store images are composed from frames of the AI-generated cutscenes.
All other content is human-made, including the game code, systems, design, all writing (scripts, narration, and story), and the hand-authored card art. We hold the rights to the AI-generated content under the generating tools' commercial licenses.
This disclosure reflects the current build. We are in the process of bringing on an artist for human-made renderings, and some of the AI-generated content above will be replaced with human-created work for the full launch. We will update this disclosure as that happens.
Generative AI was used during development to assist with brainstorming, coding assistance, and drafting certain written materials. All game content, gameplay implementation, testing, review, and final decisions were completed and verified by the developer before release.
All primary artwork in this game, including the main character and every enemy, was created by hand either drawn by the developer or by human artists. AI assistance was limited to a few secondary visual effects (light effects, explosions, blood/spray), produced with custom procedural drawing scripts written with the help of an AI coding assistant and then hand-edited and curated by the developer. Some in-game text translations may be pre-generated with AI-assisted localization and reviewed by the developer. No image, audio, or video generation models were used. No AI is used at runtime.
The game's main soundtrack was created using generative AI. The game's promotional capsule artwork was also created with the assistance of generative AI. All other gameplay, programming, game design, pixel art, animations, visual effects, sound effects, UI, and game content were created by the developer.
MonsterBash includes pre-generated AI-assisted artwork for certain menu backgrounds and between-level illustrations. All AI-generated assets were reviewed, edited, and integrated by the developer. No AI-generated content is created during gameplay.
Some in-game art - including relic icons, character/enemy art, and background imagery - was created with the assistance of generative AI tools during development. Some written content, such as boss dialogue and relic/item flavor text, was drafted with the assistance of generative AI and then reviewed and edited by the development team before being included in the game.
This game uses artificial Intelligence to render some of the games artwork, such as 2D sprites and sound effects.
I've always loved the idle genre, AI has finally allowed me to create a game even with my somewhat limited artistic abilities.
The game contains a few voice lines that where generated using a text-to-speech service. I assume this service used some sort of gen-AI. For some translations an AI was used for proofreading.
AI was utilized to generate some references and provide consultations during the code development process. Additionally, AI assisted in translating and correcting grammatical errors, as English is not my native language.
I wanted to lie and say I didn’t use ai at all, but my conscience wouldn't let me.
As an independent developer/publisher, AI-assisted tools have been used selectively to support presentation and marketing workflows, not to replace the game’s creative direction or development.
The game itself is designed, directed, developed, coded, and assembled by human creators. Core gameplay systems, level design, story direction, implementation, and development decisions are not generated by AI.
This game was developed with the assistance of generative AI tools for certain content, including:
Some visual art assets (images/textures)
Some narrative and story text
Programming assistance
All AI-generated content has been reviewed, edited, and integrated by the developer to ensure final quality and stylistic consistency.
Pre-generated AI content: Character voice-over audio was generated using ElevenLabs, and the crow image used in the game's logo was generated using Google Flow. These assets are pre-generated and included in the game; no AI content is generated dynamically during gameplay.
GnollHack features 'Overseer', an optional in-game AI assistant. Using external generative AI models, Overseer provides live-generated text responses to players during gameplay. Players can ask questions about mechanics or request contextual hints based on their current game state. AI content is strictly limited to text chat, and the service utilizes safety filters and prompt guardrails to ensure responses are safe, relevant, and free of illegal or harmful content.
Generative AI was used to create initial concept art, background environment artwork, and promotional marketing materials for the Steam Store page. All generated assets were subsequently refined, edited, and formatted by the developer before final implementation into the project
