Bear with me. As a solo-creator I really want to first focus on the game complex logic and its user interface and features, which are crucial to me to give you the best possible experience I can. So this game includes a small number of artworks and music tracks generated using AI tools, which where still edited and refined by me before being included in the final build. I'm working hard to make the game even better at every release. Thank you!
Some static art candidate assets were assisted by generative AI tools during development. Any such assets included in the game are manually reviewed, selected, edited, cleaned, style-matched, and checked before being shipped as fixed static game assets. The game does not use generative AI at runtime and does not generate text, images, audio, video, or other content in response to player input while the game is running.
1. Some character art utilizes hand-drawn original sketches and designs, with AI used for coloring and lighting effects.
2. Background illustrations are AI-generated and then manually refined.
3. The script is AI-generated, with manual editing and content additions.
4. For languages other than Traditional Chinese, AI translation is used, followed by manual proofreading of terminology and content.
Characters, monsters, some buildings, CG images, and logos were generated using AI.
The characters and some 3D building models were created by V2Fun, and the materials are licensed for commercial use under the CC BY 4.0 license.
Some art, music, and 3D assets in this game were created with the help of generative AI tools. Every AI-generated asset was carefully reviewed, refined, and hand-curated by the developer to fit the game's art direction and tone. The game does not use any live-generated (runtime) AI content.
The game calls the aforementioned third-party large language model API over the network at runtime. When the player makes a decision, issues an imperial edict, or interacts with ministers in the game, the game assembles the current situation and character settings into a request and sends it to the AI service; the text returned by the service (minister dialogue, memorials to the throne, plot deduction) is presented in the game interface in real time. This process is transparent to the player and requires no player-side configuration, but an internet connection is required throughout.
I have utilized AI tools to assist in the creation of some store page assets and in-game textures. These AI-generated elements were used as a foundational base, which were then heavily edited, polished, and manually integrated by me to ensure they align with the game's unique art style and technical requirements. No AI tools were used to generate the core gameplay logic or narrative content; their usage was strictly limited to the visual asset production pipeline.
This game uses curated, pre-generated AI-assisted artwork and audio. These assets are created before release, then reviewed, edited, processed, and integrated by the developer as fixed in-game images, ambience, and related store or marketing materials.
The Darkened Northern Lights uses generative AI to help create some of the content that ships with the game:
Artwork: many of the game's pixel-art characters and graphics were made with the help of an AI art tool.
Sound: some of the game's audio was created with the help of AI.
Text and localization: parts of the game's text and its Finnish and English translations were produced with the help of AI.
All of this content was reviewed by the developer and is fixed - it does not change while you play. The game does not generate any content live during gameplay. An optional feature that generates extra storybook tales may be added in a future update; if so, this notice will be updated.
Some visual assets, images, or concept materials used in this game are created with AI-assisted tools and further selected, adjusted, integrated, or refined by the author for use in the game's artistic presentation and content production.
This game uses AI-generated images for some of its 2D artwork, character
scenes, and store page visuals. All AI-generated content is reviewed, edited,
and curated by our team to fit the game's historical setting. The game's
design, writing, story, and code are created by human developers.
AI was used to create background images in the novel, as well as objects in the levels, but the levels are drawn to the final stage manually by an artist.
Artwork note: some visuals were generated with AI models in this early version. For now the focus is on mechanics, so they are placeholders. Over time I will make the style more consistent and replace them with assets designed specifically for AoNW.
AI tools were used to assist with the creation of some visual assets and for code development assistance. Any AI-assisted visual content included in Tea Heaven was reviewed, edited, and integrated by the developer. AI-assisted code suggestions were manually reviewed and modified before implementation. The game does not use live generative AI during gameplay.
This game uses pre-generated AI content in the following areas of its production:
- Character artwork (comic-style panels)
- Background and environment artwork
- FMV/cutscene videos
- Music and ambient audio
- Story dialogue text (developer-edited with AI assistance)
All AI tools used are commercially licensed for use in this type of product. As the sole developer (Karayel / Yunus Emre Bas), I confirm that I hold the rights to use these AI-generated outputs and they do not infringe on any third-party intellectual property. The final selection, integration, narrative direction, and quality control were all performed by the developer.
Some visual and audio assets in this game were created with the assistance of generative AI tools
and then reviewed, edited, and curated by the developer. The game does not use live generative AI
during gameplay and does not generate content from player input.
All visual artwork in Altus Chess: Archaic Beginnings — piece designs, board and background art, and promotional/store imagery — was created using generative AI image tools, directed by the developer through human-written prompts based on the game's own pieces and concepts, then reviewed and edited by hand. No content is generated live during gameplay. The game's opponent is a proprietary, hand-built algorithmic chess engine, not generative AI.
AI tools were used to assist in the creation of temporary promotional artwork and concept visuals for the Steam store page. Gameplay systems, implementation, balancing, and final game integration are developed manually.
Artwork, Sound design, Music, Gameplay and Programming are human-created. AI was used to pre-plan artwork, editing/extending images, generating background sounds and music, and to speed up coding.
AI images are being temporarily used in the Steam Store presence and will be removed and replaced before game's release.
The feedback on the in-game world state and the dynamic dialogues with NPCs are generated in real time during the game's operation by integrating a large language model (LLM).
This game includes pre-generated content made with the assistance of generative AI tools, including some visual assets, audio/sound effects, text, localization, and other production materials. AI tools were also used during development to support programming and production workflows. All AI-assisted content included in the game has been manually reviewed and refined by the development team. The game does not generate AI content during gameplay.
Generative AI tools were used during development for ideation, development assistance, and promotional exploration. All final gameplay systems, game logic, and in-game content were created and reviewed by the developer.
Delphi uses Midjourney for illustrated artwork (cards, events, key art, capsule art) and Kling for image-to-video trailer animation, all curated and edited by the developer. UI artwork is hand-made by a credited human artist.
No AI is used in design, writing, narrative or gameplay, and no AI runs at runtime — all in-game content is human-written static data.
The game itself is made entirely by human hands. All in-game art, music, sound design, and writing are created or directed by human authors without generative AI. All gameplay footage shown on this store page is real, captured from the actual game.
Generative AI is used for some marketing materials — including promotional images, social media assets, and capsule art — to support a small independent studio's marketing within budget constraints. These AI-generated images are intended to represent the game's existing hand-made art style.
No AI-generated content is shipped inside the game itself. If Echo Pandemic recovers its development costs, capsule images and marketing material will be replaced with commissioned human work.
The art and music assets in this game were created with the assistance of generative AI technology.
As a registered architect in my day job, I am used to using tools like CAD to aid my designs. In game development, AI plays the exact same role—it is a tool, but the soul of the design comes from the human creator. I do not allow any rough, unpolished assets into my game. Therefore, all AI-generated content has gone through my strict "manual inspection": rigorous prompt tuning, meticulous manual overpainting, and audio trimming. I carefully polish every visual and auditory "brick" to build the perfect cultivation world, pouring my true craftsmanship entirely into the core "Eight Trigrams Array" deck-building experience.
The game contains in-game narrative and dialogue text that was created with the assistance of generative AI and then reviewed by the developer. All artwork and music are human-created.
AI assisted assets and text are developer edited. The core game is playable without AI. Optional advisor commentary can use local Ollama or Anthropic only if the player enables it and provides their own key.
