Some pre-generated visual and audio assets in AI Startup Simulator were created with the assistance of generative AI tools during development. This includes in-game desktop wallpapers, images used in vision-related tasks, and instrumental music loops for minigames. These assets were reviewed, edited, and integrated by the development team before release. The game does not use live generative AI and does not generate content with AI during gameplay.
Some of the art assets in this work are created using Image2.5, including but not limited to partial store page images, in-game scene graphics, loading screens, and select item icons.
This game uses generative AI for part of the destination crest artwork and for the store page text and its translations. No content is generated by AI while you play.
Artwork featured in Celebria has been AI-assisted. All AI-assisted material was reviewed and edited by the developer, and no content is live generated by AI during gameplay.
Generative AI tools were used during development to assist with creating select pre-generated 3D base models, 2D promotional/marketing art, and drafting portions of the source code
All animations (sourced and configured via Mixamo), level design, environmental layouts, physics tuning, core game logic, and overall gameplay systems were manually designed, built, and integrated by the development team
The game does not generate any live AI content at runtime
All AI-assisted assets and code have been manually reviewed, curated, and tested to ensure stability, quality, and full compliance with copyright and intellectual property standards
Generative AI tools were used during development to assist with refining some text, code, and images. Some in-game textures were also generated using AI. All AI-assisted content was reviewed, edited, and integrated by the developer. The game does not generate AI content during gameplay.
This game uses generative AI tools in a few areas: some 2D art assets (such as the main menu background, title logo, and UI icons), some background music and sound effects, and the drafting and translation of store page text. All AI-generated content was reviewed and edited by the developer to ensure quality and appropriate use.
As a solo developer, I utilize AI to amplify my outputs. Although I never rely on or depend on the AI to do the work, it is a tool much like this computer that I am typing on, the creativity is still up to us to use it correctly. No content is generated during play.
This is a temporary placeholder poster. They will be removed before release and replaced with hand-drawn illustrations. Currently, I'm the only programmer working on the game. Closer to release, I'll be hiring an artist to collaborate on the game.
I’m an indie game developer and have tried making games for years. Generative AI has been used as part of my development process, including helping with code, visual and sound assets. It is not a simple one-shot process, but effort has been put in over multiple generations to control and curate the art style.
Generative AI tools were used during development as part of the production workflow for pre-generated visual, 3D, audio, written, and localization content included in the game. All final content was selected, reviewed, edited, adapted, and integrated as part of the game's development process. No generative AI systems run during gameplay and no content is generated dynamically for players.
The visual art in Palimpsest Idle (character, enemy, weapon, equipment, icon and background art) was created during development using AI image generation tools, then curated, processed and hand-assembled by the developer. The game's two music tracks were produced during development using an AI music composition service under a licence granting full ownership of the resulting compositions. Sound effects are royalty-free library recordings and are not AI-generated. No content is generated while the game is running - all assets ship as fixed files, and the game makes no network requests during play.
The background artwork in Hand Stretched — the shopfront, the kitchen and bar scenery, and the shop sign — was generated using Adobe Firefly, then edited and assembled by hand.
Everything you actually interact with is drawn by the game itself: the pizzas, the dough, the drinks and the icons are rendered in code as you play, not painted images.
The music is not AI-generated. It is four tracks licensed from human artists on Pixabay, credited by name in the game's settings.
The game's code was written with AI assistance. Nothing is generated while you play, and the game connects to no AI service.
Generative AI has been used as a supplementary tool in the creation of some art assets and UI elements included in this game. AI has also been used to assist with some text creation and localization.
AI-generated or AI-assisted content is reviewed by the developer and edited or adjusted by hand as needed. Generative AI is used only as a tool to support the development process, while careful attention is given to the overall quality, consistency, and atmosphere of the game.
Generative AI tools were used during the development of this game to assist in creating selected pre-generated content, including images and illustrations, character visuals, 3D characters, models and assets, textures, cinematic videos, narration and voice elements, soundtrack/music, and selected textual or narrative content. All AI-assisted content was reviewed, selected, edited, and integrated by the developer before being included in the final game. Generative AI is not used to create content or code during gameplay.
Some of the game model mesh are crafted with AI Support, we have 1 artist creating toy design and 1 model artist to craft model of our own design. AI is used to help edit some of the model.
Some pre-rendered content was created with generative AI tools and then manually reviewed, selected, and edited by the developer: art assets (store capsule artwork, character and environment sprites) and localized text (Japanese, Simplified Chinese, French, and Russian translations of the game's interface). All game design, code, and original Korean/English text were written by the developer. The game does not generate any content with AI at runtime — there is no live or real-time AI generation.
This app uses AI tools during the development process, for example to configure some behavior algorithms. All dog sprite art consists of hand-drawn works by human artists, purchased under a commercial license. No generative AI is used during gameplay.
Some pre-generated artwork and audio were created with generative AI during development. These outputs are integrated as fixed assets; the game does not generate content live during gameplay or connect to a third-party AI service during gameplay.
Parts of Fluxgates were built with AI assistance, and all of it is fixed content baked into the build - nothing is generated while you play.
Code: Some of the game's source was written with an AI coding assistant, reviewed, edited and tested by the developer before shipping.
Text: English and French interface strings and node descriptions were drafted with AI help and edited by hand.
No AI generated art or audio. Every visual is drawn by the interface itself, and every sound and music track is synthesised procedurally by a script in the project.
The game runs fully offline. No AI model runs at runtime, and no data leaves your machine.
Generative AI tools have been used in a limited capacity to assist with pre-generated promotional content. All AI-assisted material is reviewed and curated by the developer. No generative AI is used during gameplay, and the game does not connect to external AI services.
Swarm Idle uses generative AI as part of its development workflow to assist with localization and the creation of some visual assets. All AI-assisted content is reviewed and integrated by the developer. No generative AI is used during gameplay or at runtime.
Generative AI tools were used to assist with some UI artwork and localization.
All AI-assisted content is pre-generated and reviewed before being included in the game or its store materials.
Generative AI was used to create initial artwork for the in-game VHS covers. All generated images were subsequently manually edited and refined by the development team.
Parts of this game were made with AI assistance. AI-assisted coding was used during development, and some artwork was AI-generated and then edited by hand. The design, the systems and the writing are my own.
Some visual assets were created with the assistance of generative AI tools during development. These assets were subsequently reviewed, edited, and refined by the development team before being included in the final game.
No AI-generated content is created during gameplay.
AI tools were used during development to assist with coding, 3D modeling, and sound effect creation. All AI-generated content was reviewed and edited by the developer.
Urban Bus Simulator includes some content created with the assistance of generative AI. AI-generated content is used for certain HUD elements, menu/interface visuals, and promotional or illustrative images related to vehicle brands. These AI-generated assets are used as part of the game's visual presentation and user interface.
This game uses AI to analyze the meaning and intent of players’ natural-language input in real time, enabling players to interact with characters using their own words. AI is used solely for input analysis during gameplay. All dialogue and narrative content are written by the development team and are not generated by AI.
Coppersmog is a game created independently by me, a father, a husband and a video game hobbyist.
I'm proud to say that I designed the game, directed it, and decided what made it fun to play.
I also built it with the help of generative AI.
I wanted to tell you this fact plainly so that my honesty could help bridge your concerns and inform your choice to play this game.
Here is what the AI contribution actually means in this game and with me specifically.
Every decision in this game is mine. The world, the rules, how a room feels, what a blorb is, and what's allowed to happen to one, I set it all.
To be honest, I throw away most of what AI generates because it just doesn't "get it" most of the time.
AI has no taste. It cannot tell when something is right, funny, or profound. It can make an enormous number of things, but it cannot decide which of them belongs in Coppersmog. That judgement is the heart of the job. That judgement is my most important aspect of what I do.
AI gives me is attempts, drafts and options.
It writes code segments, runs thousands of fight simulations, and fixes my grammar and then I cut, change, reject, and try again.
AI is wrong constantly.
Sometimes it builds a second version of something the game already has. Sometimes it forgets a decision we made weeks ago. Sometimes it writes code that looks perfect and never runs. There's a lot of invisible work to keep those pieces pointed in the same direction. Orchestrating it all falls to me.
I know that AI integration is not acceptable to everyone and so I wanted to be honest about how I'm using it to give you a chance to make an informed decision.
If you read all of this and decide that Coppersmog is not for you, that's a completely fair choice. I want you to make choices that are best for you, using the facts in front of you.
One thing that brings me comfort as I wrestle with where I want AI to be in my life is that this is a hobby project that made me smile quite a bit. I'm proud of my little world. Thank you.
Daily code audits using AI, mainly focussed on optimization.
Some hud art is generated as concept art, then altered or remade to specifically fit the game theme. We plan to replace all before release.
Actual building blocks and pixelart is partly bought from isometric art sellers and most of them recrafted by hand.
No AI content is generated during gameplay.
We used AI-assisted tools during development to help create and iterate on internal game code, UI sprites, and some 3D model assets. All AI-assisted outputs were reviewed, edited, and approved by the development team before being included in the game. The game does not allow players to generate AI content during gameplay.
