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.
Death to Demons uses pre-generated AI-assisted content in some artwork, visual concepts, promotional images, and development/reference materials. All AI-assisted content used in the shipped game or Steam store materials is reviewed, selected, and edited by the developer before inclusion.
The game does not use live generative AI during gameplay. No player prompts are used to generate in-game content.
Some of this game's localized text was translated with AI assistance. All translated content has been manually reviewed and proofread to ensure quality and accuracy, and does not contain any illegal or infringing material.
Some of the game’s visual assets were created with the assistance of generative AI. All generated artwork is reviewed, edited, refined, and adapted by the development team to maintain a consistent visual identity and ensure that it matches the game’s artistic direction and design choices.
This approach was necessary due to the high cost of commissioning the full amount of artwork required from one or more professional artists or illustrators. Using AI-assisted tools helped keep the project financially viable, speed up production, and bring the game to players sooner while preserving a cohesive and recognizable style.
Some of the art in SoulForge Legends was created with the help of generative AI tools. All of it was generated during development, then reviewed, edited and assembled by hand before shipping. Nothing is generated live while you play, and the game never sends your input to an AI service.
These translations were generated with the help of AI. As an indie developer, I currently don't have the budget to hire professional translators, but I hope to do so in the future.
Some in-game artwork—including characters, monsters, weapons, backgrounds, card illustrations, and UI assets—as well as some store page images, was created using pre-generated AI tools.

Some artwork , sound effects, and music were created using generative AI tools. All content was pre-generated during development and reviewed/edited by the developer. The game does not generate content at runtime.
Some of the game's visual assets — UI textures, illustrations, icons and marketing artwork — were created with the assistance of generative AI tools, then manually curated, edited and integrated by the developer. All game design, writing, code and systems are human-made. No AI content is generated at runtime.
This game uses content created or assisted by generative AI. Generative AI was used to help create and edit some visual assets, music/sound materials, and scripts. All final content was reviewed, selected, and adjusted by the developer before being included in the game.
To create a better context and focus on the essential parts of the game, we used AI to help create some background art. After AI generated these images, our artists still had to refine them to ensure the style of the background.
Graphic assets such as sprites and decorations are created with AI tools, then refined by hand in software like Photoshop. Videos follow the same process. Music and sound effects contain no AI-generated content.
Quillzyra: Character Studio uses generative AI locally on the user's computer to create and interact with fictional characters. The application may generate character dialogue, personality text, memory summaries, character descriptions, and optional 2D character portraits based on user input.
The AI features are intended for fictional character creation, simulation, and conversation. The application does not rely on an external AI service during gameplay.
AI tools were used during development for the following assets:
Steam Store capsule images and marketing art
Game localization and text translations
Select 2D visual assets and graphics in the game
Some pre-generated visual and narrative elements included in Ashfire Keep were created or assisted using generative AI tools under the developer's creative direction. This includes the Ashfire Keep logo, selected HUD mockups and edited derivatives used in the final interface, and narrative text that was reviewed, corrected, and approved by the developer. The game does not generate AI content at runtime, does not connect to generative AI services during gameplay, and does not send player data to AI services. All other visual and audio assets are commercially licensed third-party assets.
We use AI as a creative assistant to refine our English descriptions and ensure they are easy to read and engaging (since we are not native speakers). In addition, some of the game’s illustrations were created with the help of generative AI tools and later refined by human artists.
Pre-generated content. Character portraits, spell and keyword icons, and store artwork were produced using AI image generation tools, then selected, edited and assembled by the developer. Some in-game text was drafted with AI assistance and edited by the developer. Music and sound effects are licensed from human creators. No content is generated live while the game is running.
Generative AI was used during development as a supporting tool to create secondary assets and assist with text revision. All AI-generated content was manually reviewed, edited, and integrated into the game engine to ensure the project's visual and gameplay consistency.
Some of the art assets in Battle of Plans were produced with AI-assisted
tools. Specifically, a number of 3D props (weapon models) were created using

integrated by our team, and some promotional/store images were created with
AI image tools. Every AI-assisted asset was reviewed by a human before it
shipped.
Localization into languages other than Turkish and English was produced with
machine translation.
The game does not generate any content while you play: there is no AI chat,
no AI-generated dialogue, and no runtime asset generation. Player chat is
written by players and filtered server-side.
