Where do games disclose AI use?

The only use of AI in this game is for generating character voice lines. No gameplay elements, visuals, or other content are AI-generated. The AI voices may be replaced with human voice actors in future updates.

Some promotional images on the Steam store page were created with the assistance of generative AI tools during early visual concept work and were subsequently manually refined. The game itself does not use generative artificial intelligence.

We used AI tools to pre-generate visual assets (backgrounds, characters) which were then processed and integrated into the game.

AI was used coding asistance, marketing assets and musics.

Generative AI tools were used to develop selected game elements.

In the development of this game, we use a generative AI to assist in creating some of the source code.

How Does It Work? The Human-Led Creative Process Players will start their game by participating in a time traveling Ritual. AI doesn't write our story; it writes a story within a world which our creative team has designed. The Ritual takes what you describe and the world we’ve built – its art, biomes, enemy types, magic systems and overarching lore – and turns it into gameplay that’s personal to you. These aren't AI suggestions; they are human-designed game mechanics and rules that AI must follow. During The Ritual, you describe your hero – their name, and how they look, plus curious nuggets about what they love, hate, are known for etc. When you describe your hero as "a punk rocker who fears spiders and loves the color red," our platform triggers a process and system instructions that work hand-in-hand with Gemini AI. We send your input along with our own carefully crafted guidelines that tell Gemini exactly how to evaluate content appropriateness. All storytelling is orchestrated by logic the engineering team designed, not AI deciding what happens next, alongside a story bible and character descriptions, creating assets, in real time, to craft your customized gaming experience. All character visuals are generated using a custom AI model (LoRA) trained exclusively on our own artwork. It understands how we draw faces, hairstyles, armour, and bodies – the rules, proportions, and style choices behind the art – rather than copying individual images or creating its own. This means when your character gets generated, it is not generic AI art; it is our artistic DNA interpreting your imagination. The result is a caricature of your hero, rendered in our visual language. Similarly, character abilities aren't randomly generated; they follow strict mathematical systems. When Gemini generates a Unique Spell, for example, the damage, archetype, name, colours, and parameters, come from us. While The Ritual could find anyone at all in the past, we’ve also implemented layers of safeguards to ensure only true heroes can be recruited to the war effort.

I want to be fully transparent with you. Some of the visual assets in this game were created with the help of generative AI tools. However, AI was used strictly as a tool, not as a replacement for creativity or craftsmanship. No image generated by AI was used “as is.” Every asset went through heavy manual modification, repainting, redesigning, compositional changes, color correction, detailing, and integration into the game’s visual language. I spent hundreds of hours in GIMP reworking compositions, adjusting lighting and color palettes, redrawing shapes and much more. The final result you see in the game is the outcome of extensive manual work and artistic decisions. I'm not an artist at all, and AI simply helped accelerate early-stage iteration. Without this help the game could not exist. The game’s design, mechanics, balance, progression systems, and overall vision are entirely human-made. Thank you for supporting indie development.

Some code and art may be ai generated

Generating thumbnail assets based on in-game screenshots

AI tools were used during development to assist with post-processing of store page images and internal concept art. Images used on the store page originate from the game itself, with AI tools used to help improve sharpness, clarity, and to adapt images to required dimensions. All AI-assisted images were manually reviewed and selected by the developer. No AI-generated content is used during gameplay, and no AI is used to dynamically generate visuals, dialogue, audio, or other content while the game is running.

Human touch + AI. Artificial Intelligence (AI) was used to enhance code efficiency and optimize selected graphical elements, improving the overall performance and visual quality of the project — while preserving its handcrafted style and unique artistic identity.

AI is used for creating the music, sound effects, some of the textures, and some of the 3d assets.

It helps me create game assets, which I then refine myself.

Some static artwork used on the store page and marketing materials was created with AI-assisted tools. These images were manually edited, reviewed, and finalized by the developer.

AI was used as a tool to assist with coding and text editing.

We use generative AI tools during development to create some pre-rendered visual assets such as the game logo, key art, thumbnails, and parts of the intro video. All in-game characters, environments, UI, and gameplay systems are manually authored and do not use AI during runtime. No player data or user-generated content is sent to AI services while the game is running.

This game includes developer-created AI-generated music. Players do not generate or modify any AI content.

Generative AI was used during the development process as an assistant for writing code scripts and debugging. Additionally, AI tools were utilized to assist with the translation of in-game text for localization purposes. All AI-generated content has been reviewed and edited by the developers.

Some images were generated by AI.

Portions of the game’s audio were generated using AI, and AI technology was used for translating some in-game languages.

AI is used for 3d assets and some coding

AI has been used to develop flavour text of items.

Ambient Music Generation

This is an independently developed game. Generative AI tools are used as an auxiliary creative method in certain development processes, including art design and assisted code development. All AI-generated assets and code snippets have undergone original conceptualization by the developer, manual modification, detailed refinement, and strict review, ensuring that all content is legal and compliant, stylistically consistent, and does not infringe upon the intellectual property rights of any third party.

Some art assets were created with AI-assisted tools using my prompts and then edited/painted over by me for consistency and final polish

"AI was used to generate some images such as loading screens or character portraits."

AI was used to create placeholders of 2D sprites used in parts of the UI and as stage prompts. All of these elements will be removed over time.

Parts of the game’s code were created with the assistance of AI tools. All game assets are designed and created by our team. The game itself does not use AI features such as live-generated content, textures, or behavior.

Abyssbound uses generative AI to create certain voice lines and character animations. These AI-generated elements are used to enhance atmosphere and storytelling, but they do not affect gameplay mechanics or player progression. All AI-generated content is integrated in a way that supports the game's artistic direction.
