The following aspects of this game's development were assisted by AI tools:
• Code architecture planning and refactoring suggestions
• Debugging assistance
• Localization (English / Simplified Chinese / Japanese / and other supported languages)
• Initial drafts of select art assets
• Background music generation (SUNO)
All AI-generated output was reviewed, edited, and integrated by a human before inclusion in the final build. Core gameplay design, balancing, and final decisions were made by the developer.
Generative AI tools were used in a limited capacity to assist with marketing materials and early concept visuals during development. All AI-assisted content was reviewed and approved by the development team. The final shipped game contains no generative AI content.
Generative AI tools were used to assist with localization drafts, wording review, store text preparation, research into real-world goods and price references, code debugging, and optimization suggestions. All final text, translations, game design, data, UI implementation, pricing decisions, and release decisions are reviewed and controlled by the developer.
This game contains pre-generated content created with the assistance of generative AI tools during development.
AI was used mainly for card illustrations, UI design drafts, some text creation assistance, and programming assistance.
The game does not generate new images, audio, text, or other content using AI during gameplay.
Generative AI tools were used during the development process to assist in writing, optimizing, and refining C# scripts in Unity, as well as in the conceptualization, texture generation, and editing of 2D visual assets and user interface elements.
We begin by defining detailed character backgrounds, which are then transformed into base concept art using generative AI. Subsequently, we perform local editing, detailed repainting, and textural refinement on these images to ensure every asset meets our specific design requirements.
Some marketing artwork on this store page (capsule images, library hero, page background) was generated with AI image tools and then composited with vector-rendered typography. No AI-generated content ships inside the game itself. All player names, team names, draft classes, and simulation outcomes are produced by procedural algorithms with a seeded random number generator, not by AI models.
Some of the English text content and translations in this game were created with the help of generative AI tools. All text has been reviewed and edited by our development team to ensure accuracy and educational quality.
This game uses generative AI to power the companion's real-time conversation, personality responses, and contextual awareness. The AI model (e.g. GPT-4, Qwen, or any user-configured LLM) generates all dialogue and responses dynamically at runtime. AI-generated speech synthesis (TTS) and speech recognition (ASR) are also used for voice interaction. No AI-generated art assets or pre-rendered content are included — all AI usage occurs live during gameplay based on the player's own API configuration.
Pixel Q is a local AI assistant that utilizes large language models (LLMs) for real-time conversational AI. All AI models run locally on the user's device. Safety guardrails are enforced through restrictive prompt engineering, output filtering, and the inherent safety features of the underlying open-source models. The AI is designed to refuse requests for illegal, harmful, hateful, or sexually explicit content. No user data is sent to external servers.
This game was developed with the assistance of generative AI tools. AI tools were used during development to help generate or organize code, game text, UI text, data structures, and some visual assets, such as icons or other art resources. All AI-assisted content is pre-generated and reviewed by the developer before being included in the game build. The game does not generate AI content during gameplay and does not connect to any external AI services.
During the development of this game, artificial intelligence tools were used to assist with various aspects of production, including the creation of the store artwork, menu graphics, team crest images, parts of the C# programming, music composition, and the generation and refinement of game ideas.
As an independent developer, I work alone on every aspect of this project. For quite some time, I have used tools such as ChatGPT and Codex to support my workflow, helping me increase productivity and allowing me to dedicate more time to improving the overall game experience.
Despite this technological assistance, all creative decisions, project direction, final implementation, and supervision of every stage of development were carried out by me.
I believe that artificial intelligence is a valuable tool that can help independent developers bring their ideas to life more efficiently. I hope the use of these tools will be seen as part of a modern development process rather than as a deciding factor in whether or not to purchase the game.
Thank you sincerely for your understanding, your interest in the project, and your support of independent game development.
In our game, some sections of code are generated by artificial intelligence, a common practice among developers and quality assurance engineers. Some images are also generated by artificial intelligence.
This title was developed with substantial assistance from generative AI.[Store Assets — Visual Content]The key visual, store capsule images, library assets (including the library hero), and certain screenshot backgrounds were produced using image generation AI ("Midjourney v7 / Niji v7") under a commercial license (Standard tier).[Source Code, Game Design, and In-Game Text]The C++ source code, data structures, system architecture, gameplay mechanics specifications, in-game text, item naming conventions, job names, and skill names were developed in collaboration with conversational AI ("Claude" by Anthropic and "Gemini" by Google).[The Developer's Role]Quench Forge handles concept, product vision, product management, final specification decisions, hands-on PIE (Play-In-Editor) testing, bug reports, and release decisions.Code generation, code review, test design, system architecture, game mechanics specifications, in-game text, and marketing materials are all created in collaboration with Claude (Anthropic) and Gemini (Google). Every AI-generated artifact is filtered through the developer's "appraiser's eye" — selected, approved, and revised through specification feedback — before being incorporated into the product.This game applies its own core theme — "an appraiser-shopkeeper who reads materials and Modifiers to forge the right blade" — to its own development process.[Runtime Behavior]No generative AI runs during gameplay. All in-game mechanics operate on compiled, deterministic algorithms (with optional reproducible random seeds). The game does not require any online connection to AI services during play.
Generative AI tools were used during development to assist with portions of the game’s code and to create some visual assets. All AI-generated content has been reviewed and modified by the development team to ensure quality and consistency with the game’s design.
Where possible, we prioritize the use of original, human-created assets. We take care to ensure that all content included in the game complies with applicable intellectual property and content guidelines.
This game includes AI‑generated assets, such as sprites, icons, illustrations, and sound effects. All AI‑generated content was created during development, manually reviewed, and integrated as static assets.
The game does not generate any AI content during gameplay, and it does not create dynamic images, audio, or text for players. All included assets are fixed and safe.
Generative AI tools were used only for a very small portion of the store's promotional assets and concept designs to assist the workflow. The vast majority of the game, including its core mechanics, code, and structural design, has been developed traditionally by our team. All AI-assisted elements have been heavily edited, verified for copyright compliance, and do not contain any illegal material.
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 uses generative AI solely for the creation of certain visual and text assets.
AI does not affect gameplay, player behavior, or core game mechanics.
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.
Generative AI tools were used during development to assist with early concept art, visual ideation, logos, and certain promotional materials. All final in-game content and gameplay implementation were curated, edited, and integrated by the developers.
FOAMGRAVE includes some AI-assisted content, including certain visual assets (such as menu/loading screen artwork) and music/audio created using generative AI tools. All gameplay systems, programming, world design, and final integration were created and implemented by the developer.
Regarding the AI disclosure, we would like to clarify the specific scope of AI usage in our game:
1. Asset Generation (Pre-generated AI Content):
We have utilized generative AI tools exclusively for creating static assets. Specifically, AI was used to generate in-game icons, background images, and the store page assets (capsule images/banners). No real-time AI generation occurs during gameplay.
2. In-Game CPU Behavior (Non-AI):
The NPC/CPU behavior and logic within the game are strictly controlled by standard programming using conditional statements (if-then statements) and random number generation (RNG). No AI or machine learning models are used for the gameplay mechanics or enemy logic.
We are very sorry. We have used AI assistance in the development of our code and some art assets. If any of our players feel uncomfortable with this, we fully understand.
During the development of Hell Cleaners, AI tools were used to create early concepts and references to help explore the visual direction of the game. All final art assets that ship in the game were created, painted, or reworked by hand by our art team. No AI-generated audio, voice, or narrative text is used in the shipped product. We believe games should be made by humans!
Some visual assets, promotional images, and store page materials may include AI-assisted generated elements that were further edited and refined by the development team. AI is not used to generate gameplay, player interactions, or real-time in-game content.
Some visual assets used in Runemoria – Blades of Memory were created with the assistance of generative AI tools and have been modified, curated, and integrated as part of the game’s development process. AI-generated content is limited to pre-rendered visual assets and does not generate gameplay content during play.
Some of the current store page artwork and promotional assets were created using generative AI tools during the early development and marketing phase of the project. As an independent project with limited resources, this approach was used to accelerate initial marketing efforts and bring the game to market more quickly.
Generative AI is not used to create gameplay content, player drawings, or user-generated content within the game. The AI-generated marketing assets may be replaced with human-created artwork in future updates as development continues.
The development of Eldara incorporated AI-generated content. Specifically, AI image generation tools were used to create certain in-game visual assets, including monster portraits, pet illustrations, item icons, and character artwork.
All AI-generated assets were manually reviewed, curated, and integrated by the developer before inclusion in the final product. No real-world copyrighted artwork was intentionally used as input to the AI generation process.
No AI is used live during gameplay — all assets are pre-generated and shipped with the game. There is no live AI generation, AI dialogue, or AI-driven content while playing.
As a small indie studio, we use generative AI tools to assist in parts of our art creation process. This helps us improve the quality and consistency of artwork while allowing our team to work more efficiently. All AI-assisted content is reviewed, refined, and integrated by our developers to ensure it meets the artistic vision and quality standards of the game.
