Some visual assets in this game were created or enhanced using generative AI tools during development. These assets were reviewed and refined by the development team before being included in the final product.
The game does not use AI to generate content during gameplay.
Generative AI tools were used to assist in the creation of store asset (such as capsule art). The resulting assets were further reviewed and polished by humans.
The developer used AI tools during the development process as a programming assistant to optimize and troubleshoot code. Additionally, a small number of 3D models utilized as game assets were created using AI generation tools. All core gameplay mechanics, level design, and the overall creative vision are strictly handcrafted.
Art and Visual Assets: The game’s visual assets, including character designs, backgrounds, and UI elements, were pre-generated using AI tools. These assets were then curated and stylized to fit a unique comic-book aesthetic.
Code and Development: Portions of the game's underlying code and systems were developed with the assistance of AI-powered coding tools.
Quality Control: All AI-generated content has been thoroughly reviewed and edited by the developer to ensure it does not contain any infringing or illegal material and meets the game's quality standards.
This game uses live-generated AI to create text-based dialogue and narrative responses during gameplay. Players can type messages to interact with AI-driven characters and story events, and the AI may generate contextual responses based on the player’s input and current game state. AI-generated content in this game is limited to in-game text and narrative interaction.
This game includes elements using Generative AI in some pre-produced content such as intro videos.
These contents were created during the development process and finally used after editing and post-processing by the development team, and no Generative AI was used for gameplay.
AI was used for initial code reviews. Everything it produced was carefully reviewd, and we shipped those results in early production. It also served as a great "rubber duck".
The background music for the game was created using generative AI tools. However, all other game assets, including pixel art, sound effects, programming code, and narrative content, were created manually by the developer without the use of generative AI.
Aetheris Core is a hand-crafted indie game, built and tuned over thousands of hours of development and playtesting by Kavik Studios.
Generative AI tools were used to assist with parts of the process, including some visual and audio assets and technical code such as shaders. No content is generated live during gameplay; everything ships as fixed, pre-made assets. Every AI-assisted element was reviewed, edited, reworked, and integrated by hand to meet the game's quality and consistency standards. The design, balance, feel, and final form of the game are Kavik Studios' own work.
We've disclosed our use of AI tools openly since day one, and we're committed to keeping that transparency as the game grows.
Generative AI tools were used during development to assist with writing and debugging parts of the game code. Some visual or text assets may have been created or edited with the assistance of generative AI. The game does not use live generative AI during gameplay.
The game is self-funded at this stage, and your support helps us afford professional human-made services.
Thank you!
Content made with AI help:
- Store capsule
- Store localization
- Player character 3D model.
Localization was assisted by AI for multilingual support.
A small number of UI icons (approx. 10) were created using AI tools and manually refined by the developer.
To streamline our development and bring the game to market faster, we utilize generative AI for core visualization. Our team then uses these outputs as a foundation to refine, improve, and create the final iterations you see in the game.
This game uses generative AI during development for some images, music drafts, and programming assistance. All AI-assisted content was reviewed, edited, and curated by the developer before release.
Generative AI was used during development to assist in creating certain visual assets (pixel art characters, scene tiles, etc.). All AI-generated content was reviewed, curated, and modified by hand. Game code, design, and narrative were created by human developers and assisted with Generative AI.
We use generative AI tools to assist in the creation of 2D pixel art assets and marketing materials. All AI-generated content is refined and integrated by the developer to ensure a high-quality, cohesive aesthetic that fits the game's unique medieval-tech world.
AI was used only to help review, correct, and improve portions of existing code during development. All visual assets, music, and other creative content in the game were made by real artists, whose work I fully support.
The game optionally connects to a local language model server (Ollama or any OpenAI-compatible endpoint) to generate live dialogue from rulers, travelers, and city locals. This requires installing Ollama separately and running a model locally. Instructions are in GUIDE.md. The game is fully playable without this feature.
Generative AI tools were used as part of a human-led design workflow for a limited portion of the game’s pre-generated artwork and promotional materials, including Steam store assets. Professional graphic designers directed, edited, and finalized all visual assets, which were reviewed before inclusion. No content is generated using AI while the game is running.
The game's visuals heavily utilize generative artificial intelligence, and we promise to replace the AI-generated art assets for every 10,000 copies sold. After reaching 100,000 copies sold, all in-game art assets will be hand-drawn.
For the development of Silver Snake, generative AI was used to create static visual assets and the game's musical soundtrack.
Please note that all in-game sound effects and animal behaviors are procedurally generated through custom code and do not involve generative AI tools.
AI tools were used only to assist in the creation of certain marketing artwork for the Steam store page.
All in-game content, screenshots, and trailer were created without the use of generative AI.
The developer uses AI tools (such as ChatGPT, Claude, and Cursor) to assist with writing code, drafting in-game text like card effect descriptions, and brainstorming narrative elements. Additionally, AI is utilized to provide draft localizations for various languages.
However, all graphical assets (including character illustrations and monster designs) and audio are entirely human-made. No AI-generated images, pre-rendered graphics, or sound files are used in this game.
In this game, the developer uses AI tools in the creation of the following pre-generated content that players see:
1. Artwork: Image assets used on the store page and in the Steam library (capsule images, header images, etc.) and promotional materials.
2. Text: In-game text, store page descriptions, and their multilingual translations.
Currently only AI generated item is the Store graphics.
It is, however, intended in the future for the game itself to contain AI generated graphics as well.
We are an indie team of two programmers. We are currently using AI-generated art so we can start testing the game right away. Thank you for your understanding.
Some textures and 3D models in this game were created using AI-assisted procedural rendering during development. The game does not generate any content with AI at runtime.
AI tools were utilized to assist with text correction and translation. Additionally, AI was used to refine certain artwork, as well as to generate certain audio elements.
All other aspects of the project, from creative direction and story to core gameplay and scripting, represent the dedicated, hand-crafted effort of a solo developer.
This game utilizes generative AI tools to assist in the creation of select 2D artwork, specifically some UI icons, league background themes, and store page promotional materials. Other in-game assets, such as enemy art and player icon and GUI, were acquired through licensed asset stores.
Some visual assets (illustrations and portraits) and the music were created with the help of AI tools. The game code was developed with AI-assisted programming. All content was reviewed, curated, and approved by the developer.
The Steam store page banners and promotional materials were created with the help of generative AI tools. The in-game assets were either manually created or edited afterward, while certain marketing visuals (such as headers, capsules, and banners) contain AI-generated elements.
This game uses generative AI during development for certain 2D icons, concept art, placeholder graphics, and text. All AI-generated content has been manually reviewed, edited, and adapted by the developer before being included in the final game.
