Missing or unclear statements cannot establish whether a game uses AI.
Generative AI was used during development to create and refine some pre-generated artwork, character animation source material, written content, localization, and marketing scenes. All such content was reviewed, selected, and fixed before release. The game does not generate content with AI during play and does not include AI chat.
The game will connect to an open-source local large language model that is already built into the game upon first launch, and use it during gameplay to generate NPC dialogues, host responses, and reasoning review feedback. Players may also choose to access compatible third‑party large language model APIs. The text generated at runtime is based on player questions and current story data.
Some store artwork and marketing materials were created with the assistance of generative AI tools. These are pre-generated static assets; no AI content is generated in real time during gameplay.
Pre-generated AI-assisted artwork is used for selected character portraits, property and location imagery, career and education illustrations, and promotional materials. All such content is reviewed and curated by the developer before inclusion. The game does not generate AI content during gameplay.
Parts of the content shipped with this game were made with generative AI tools and then reviewed and edited by us before release: illustrations and background artwork, sound effects, organ cues and the menu music track, the spoken goal and penalty announcements in all seven interface languages, and parts of the in-game text and its translations. The same applies to our store artwork and to the trailers, which use pre-generated AI music and narration. All of it is produced before release. No generative AI runs while you play: the game creates no content or code at runtime and connects to no external AI service. Newspaper reports are assembled from prepared text and the events of your own career.
This game was developed with the help of generative AI tools in the following areas.
■ Illustrations and images
2D artwork such as backgrounds, character portraits, cut-in illustrations, character creator parts, achievement icons, and store artwork was produced using image generation AI. The developer designed and directed the composition, character design, colors, and intent, then selected, retouched, cropped, and composited the generated images before including them in the game.
■ Music
The background music was produced using music generation AI. The developer designed the required mood for each scene, generated candidates, then selected and edited the tracks that are included in the game.
■ Program code
AI coding assistance tools were used for part of the implementation work.
■ Assets that do not involve AI
All sound effects and character voices are existing human-created audio assets (Soundeffect Lab, Kurage Kosho, T-Suta, DOVA-SYNDROME), used in accordance with each provider's terms of use. They are not AI generated. The font is "Zen Kaku Gothic New," provided under the SIL Open Font License.
■ Rights and legal care
All AI-generated assets were reviewed by the developer to ensure they contain no illegal content and do not infringe the rights of third parties. No generation was performed with the intent of imitating any specific real person or existing work.
Some of the artwork and images in this game were created using generative AI. AI was used as a tool during development to create visual assets used in the game and its store presentation.
Pixel Metropolis is a human-designed, AI-implemented game. As its sole human creator, I am responsible for the game’s design, systems, architecture, quality assurance, extensive testing, art direction, and sound direction.
Codex, primarily using OpenAI’s GPT-5.6 Sol model, has generated all of the game’s code and has been used to direct the creation and implementation of its visual and sound assets. The only non-generated assets are a small selection of CC0 sounds.
The in-game images in this title were created using generative AI and then reviewed and edited by the developer. The story, scenario, and game design are the developer's own work.
Pocket Beasts uses generative AI tools to assist in the creation of some visual assets, including creature and character artwork, in portions of the game's text and localization, and in some of the game's sound, including background music. Not all assets are AI-generated; some artwork is sourced from purchased assets. All AI-assisted content is reviewed and edited by the development team. No content is generated live during gameplay — all assets are pre-rendered — and the game does not connect to any external AI service at runtime.
Starflare Dominion uses generative AI in two ways. Some visual assets, music, and sound effects were created with assistance from generative AI tools and were selected, edited, processed, and integrated by Whimstead LLC. During Story play, hosted OpenAI models may generate bounded narrative text, including pilot backgrounds, quotes, Cantina news, Old Man Rich stories, campaign consequences, and final legends. Players do not directly prompt an unrestricted chatbot. Generated text is checked by structured rules and validators, with retries and curated local fallback content when needed.
Some store, interface, and world illustrations were created or refined with generative image tools, then selected and edited by the developer. Combat, economy, character progression, saves, and online play are written and run by the game server. The game does not use generative AI during play to write your progress, fight your battles, or replace other players.
Parts of this game's text were created with the assistance of generative AI: the translation of the interface into several of its 13 supported languages, and portions of the store page text. All in-game art, music and sound effects are procedurally generated by hand-written code, not by AI, and no AI-generated content is created while you play.
Generative AI tools were used during development to assist with selected visual assets and promotional materials. All AI-assisted content was reviewed and refined by the developer before use.
Generative AI tools were used to assist with English localization and early drafts of in-game letter content. All AI-assisted text was reviewed and edited by the developer. No AI-generated images or audio are included.
Generative AI tools were used to create some of the pre-rendered content that ships with this game and appears on this store page, specifically artwork and character voice audio. Nothing is generated by AI while the game is running.
Our team used AI tools to assist with improving some existing sketches and character elements, creating some background elements, and producing/ improving translations and character voices.
The vast majority of the game was created by our team without AI.
Generative AI tools were used to assist with certain code, UI elements, and visual effect assets. All AI-assisted content was reviewed and ultimately approved by actual humans on the development team. The game’s environments, NPCs, and related artwork were handcrafted by our artist. All gameplay design, creative direction, and final content decisions were made by the development team.
Generative AI was used to create some pre-generated audio assets, primarily background and menu music. These audio files were created during development and are included as static game assets.
I am a professional artist who lost the majority of my vision many years ago. Now legally blind, I use AI to generate base images and I create what I call "Hybrid Art", in which I combine my own art and skills with the generations to still create art that I love. This technique has been used in Hex & Tonic for card art, store page art, etc. I hope it brings you as much joy as I got creating for you.
This game's text localization into multiple languages was assisted by AI translation tools. Three background music tracks, licensed from Pixabay, were AI-created or AI-modified by their original creators. All other artwork, audio, and game assets are human-made or sourced from licensed marketplaces — no other AI-generated content is used.
Generative AI tools were used during development to enhance and refine certain images which included improving resolution, clarity, colour. No AI-generated content is created during gameplay.
English: This game uses generative AI to create case stories, suspect dialogues, and investigative clues in real time during play. AI is provided by third-party services — you bring your own API key (entered in the in-game settings). No microtransactions.
Some of this game's assets and content were created with the help of generative AI tools during development. This includes certain graphical assets (such as store and marketing art and athlete portraits) and was also used to help generate and populate in-game content such as races, athletes and equipment. All AI-assisted content is created during development, reviewed and curated by the developer, and ships as fixed, pre-made content — the game does not generate any content with AI in real time, and does not connect to any AI service during play.
