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.
Some store-page and marketing artwork (capsule images, key art) was created with the help of generative AI tools. Some in-game sprite/visual assets were also produced or upscaled with AI-assisted tools as part of the HD remaster. All AI-assisted content is reviewed, edited and curated by the developer. The game does not use any live or real-time generative AI during gameplay, no AI content is generated on the fly for players.
Art assets in this game - the fish, environments, UI icons, achievement icons
and store page artwork - were created with the help of generative AI tools.
Every asset was then hand-picked, edited, resized and colour-corrected before
being brought into the game, and all of it was checked against a fixed art
direction and a locked colour palette.
Some of the code was written with AI assistance. All of it was reviewed by the
developer and is covered by automated tests.
The game itself never generates anything while you play, and never connects to
an AI service. Everything you see ships with the build and is the same for
every player.
Some icons, UI elements and text were created with the help of AI tools during development, then reviewed and edited by hand. Nothing is generated while you play.
AI was used as a coding assistant during development, and for translations.
I’m a software engineer with 25 years of programming experience. I used AI to help with technical implementation while I focused on the game’s design, systems, balance, and overall feel.
This game uses some pre-generated content created with generative AI tools. It does not use generative AI to generate content in real time in response to player actions.
Artwork
Generative AI tools were used to create some in-game graphics, as well as images for the Steam store page and promotional and marketing materials. Generated assets are reviewed by the developer and edited or adjusted when necessary. Some assets are used without additional editing.
Translation
AI tools are used to assist with translation and localization for some languages other than Japanese. Translations are reviewed and corrected by the developer.
Valdrys uses AI-generated content in one place: the login screen
background, a single static image of a moonlit ridge over a conifer
forest, generated with Google Gemini. It does not appear in gameplay.
Everything else in the game is hand-drawn, generated procedurally by
our own tools, or licensed from third-party artists under CC0, CC-BY
or commercial licences. All of it is credited on the in-game Credits
screen.
Parts of the game's code were written with the help of an AI coding
assistant. No AI-generated art, audio or written content ships in
Valdrys beyond the single background image described above.
Nothing in Valdrys generates content while the game is running.

Halloween Trouble 8 utilizes generative artificial intelligence tools to assist in creating several elements of the game. Specifically, AI was used in the generation of:
Art & Visuals: Background environments, character portraits, and the in-game puzzle tiles and runes.
Audio: The game's musical soundtrack.
Narrative & Writing: The overarching story generation and descriptive in-game text.
Card illustrations, portraits, faction banners and store capsule artwork were created with generative AI image tools, then curated, edited and integrated by the developer. All game design, rules, card text, writing and music selection are human-made. No AI-generated content is produced at runtime.
Generative AI was used to assist in coding and translations for different languages.
Some graphical store assets also used AI in its design, mostly as a composition tool to combine game scenes with human made art.
Some non-interactive artwork was created with generative AI (Midjourney): the main menu, research, and codex background illustrations, the introduction portrait, and store capsule art derived from those illustrations.
All code and art assets in this game are created with generative‑AI assistance and manually modified. Thanks to AI, I can realize my ideas without programming or art skills.
Generative AI was used to create musical compositions for fictional K-pop groups. All such content was created in advance; the AI does not generate new content during gameplay.
Generative AI tools are used during development to write and revise game code, create artwork, music and sound effects, and assist with writing and localization. This includes content in the game and its store and promotional materials. The developer directs and reviews the work before inclusion. No content is generated using generative AI during gameplay.
AI-assisted artwork was used for store marketing assets. The shipped game does not generate content during gameplay and does not connect to an AI service at runtime.
Generative AI tools were used during development to help create some artwork, short ambient video clips, audio, written content and localization. This content is generated in advance and included in the game. The game does not generate content through AI services while you play.
AI Disclosure: Certain background textures, NPC portrait concepts, or promotional marketing assets in this game were generated with the assistance of AI tools.
Parts of the content that ships with Nightfall were created with the help of generative AI tools. Artwork: the main menu illustration, the six hero portraits, and the four boss portraits. Music: all five soundtrack tracks were generated with Suno. This content was reviewed and selected by us before release. All in-game sprites, tilesets, animations, visual effects and user-interface art are licensed, human-made assets. No content is generated by AI while the game is running.
Era Echo is developed by a solo developer. Generative AI tools are used to assist with development and production (for example concepting, drafts, and iteration), which has helped make shipping a solo project practical. All shipped content is reviewed and directed by the developer.
Generative AI was used to assist in creating promotional artwork for the Steam store and library assets. The game itself does not use live-generated AI content.

I've been using Generative AI tools as part of development for things like programming assistance, troubleshooting, research, brainstorming, and some concept exploration.
ECHO//syntax is a work of mechanics made from love of the beat-em-up genre from CHROMAGEM. It is designed, directed, assembled, tested, and curated by me. I make the first and final decisions on the game's mechanics, characters, levels, visual direction, and overall design.
As a designer that's looking to get a particular feel and experience with this game, I'm looking through and making sure you're getting a good game to play and enjoy.
