Where do games disclose AI use?

Some jumpscare effects and item visuals make limited use of AI-assisted generation, followed by manual editing. All content is curated, integrated, and polished by the development team.

NOTES: This work was set up in September 2022. For the purpose of conducting academic research on emerging technologies, AI image generation technology (which was still in its early stages of development at the time) was used to assist in processing the visual effects of some content, and an AI music generation tool was used to create the background music. In order to avoid the abuse of artificial intelligence generation tools, only the default data sets provided by AI tools are used during the development process. All usage methods include: 1. Process the real photos to create "alien" and "distorted" effects; 2. With the "abstract image generated based on the provided keywords", manually perform secondary design, reconstruction, and drawing; 3. Generate music clips that fit the atmosphere by adjusting parameters such as musical instruments used and pace, then perform secondary editing to them. All contents involving artificial intelligence were completed before 2023. After that, AI image generation technology has been completely stopped, no longer and will no longer continue to be used for development. For all AI-generated image assets utilized in the work, this work only reserves the right to use.

Some in-game or store assets might be produced through processes involving the use of AI filters or AI generated elements merged with other sources. Whenever using a generative AI, we exclusively use private models trained with licensed sets of data.

AI has been used to create some visual content

AI used in creating the character and background illustrations for the game.

I use generative AI to create capsule images (main banners, headers, and other store assets) for our Steam store page.

Communication with the ghost is carried out using artificial intelligence. Generative artificial intelligence is partly used for creation of the game key-art on the Store Page.

this game used AI to make realistic images of old portraits.

All of the images in this game are generated by neural networks trained on images (aka “AI generated”). If you choose to boycott all AI generated material, please do not buy this game. If you are uncomfortable with the thought but are interested in my game, please read on. The aesthetic of this game had to come from the strange, uncanny look of AI. There is a heartlessness to the visuals that is intentional. I am not trying to copy the look of other artists. The only tool capable of producing the look I was going for was a malfunctioning AI. Ironically, I have had a number of people tell me that it looks much more realistic than standard AI. I am assuming this is because of how I tried to reproduce the look of old media. All images, aside from the title screen, credits and some of the video shot on camcorder were generated by AI prompts. It took several days of exploring before I began generating images that fit the aesthetic I was looking for. I have heard AI described as a slot machine, and I think the metaphor is somewhat accurate. I think of this as similar to indeterminacy in music. Using random number generators can produce interesting outputs, but you need to refine and direct the system to do so. I started my process in Midjourney. My ratio of usable images was around 100 to 1; for every 100 images I generated, I found one usable piece for the game. I created an automated process to transform these images to 16:9 widescreen in Photoshop Beta. Some of these images I touched up manually or regenerated sections of the image. There are some real images and hand painted imagery within the AI elements. Often, I would have to generate the sides of the image multiple times because photoshop didn’t generate what I needed. To those concerned about not paying artists: I understand this, but I want to be clear that this was not created to replace the work of artists, any more than the synthesized scores to horror films were about replacing orchestras. These are tools that do different things. Rather than some sort of lazy shortcut, the use of AI imagery is essential to the aesthetic and narrative of the Path of Veins.

As I am not a programmer the code in this game is a mix of youtube tutorials and AI generated code.

Radio Commentary is AI Generated

Game uses AI Voice to create dialogue sounds

The radio show was generated by AI voice technology.

This game partially incorporates the following content: AI-generated images AI-created 3D models

This game utilizes generative artificial intelligence for refining the game scenario.

MI:ND is a game that could not exist before AI. In every interaction you can say or do whatever you want, and the game will respond with a completely unique interaction and dialogue directly to you.

Only a small number of placeholder sound effects, assets, and promotional illustrations are used in the game. They will be gradually replaced with original handmade content not generated by AI. All core assets of the game are handmade.

For the development of The Broken Mirror (Xuru Engine Edition), we have integrated advanced generative AI workflows to enhance the atmospheric Noir experience. Environment & Visual Arts: Environmental assets and backgrounds have been conceptualized and generated using AI, then manually refined and stylized in high-contrast black and white to achieve a unique 'graphic novel' aesthetic. Audio Experience: Soundtrack and atmospheric sound effects were developed with AI assistance to create a deep, immersive psychological thriller mood. Human Oversight: All AI-assisted content has been curated, edited, and directed by our lead developer. The core narrative, character arcs, complex puzzle design, and final assembly are 100% original human creations, ensuring a cohesive and high-quality artistic vision.

Some marketing and page materials were made with AI

We are using AI for object generation within the game.

AI tools were used to generate select artwork, including concept images, a few decorative assets, and a few censored fictional photographs as some Voicelines and Screams. Some of these depict intentionally exaggerated or eccentric characters that would have been impractical—or impossible—to stage with real models. All AI-generated assets were manually reviewed and edited before inclusion. No AI content is generated dynamically during gameplay.

Using AI to generate some pictures, after all, the studio has no artist for the time being

I use the service to generate artificial intelligence voices for characters. The voice generation process does not occur in real-time, but rather beforehand, allowing me to test and evaluate the content before using it in the game. Additionally, I implement appropriate preventive measures to ensure that the generated content is suitable and compliant with legal requirements and Steam standards.

AI images are included in the generation of the characters' faces.

AI was used to generate voicelines.

Some sound effects such as doors and footsteps are created by AI

AI has been used in a limited way* for the following aspects: Text Localization, Speech Localization and Musical Audio. *The base was AI-generated, but the transformative creation built upon it stands as an original work. (Text was controlled by a human, the voice and musical audio were edited and reworked by a human)

使用了部分ai音效

We have used AI for all paintings that appear in the game, as well as for some of the text within the 'About This Game' section on the store page.

We used neural networks to create illustrations for the store. After generation, the work was refined in photo editor.

Some pictures on the walls were generated by AI.

AI has been used in this game for voice generation.

Some basic components like door opening and closing, and light switching were automatically mounted by Yahaha Studio's AI tools (a UGC game editor). The 3D scenes were constructed using Yahaha Studio's AI tools (a UGC game editor), with art assets recognized and used by the AI tools being copyright-compliant.

AI-generated images are used for the textures of some 3D models.

Static art created by artists has been augmented by AI in minor cases.

The Steam capsule has been altered using AI for the store page.

Character voice acting

A number of assets were generated or assisted/edited/photo-edited with assistance of AI, as well as voice overs.

The game's store page used AI to provide game content descriptions and localization.

Some graphic content on the store page was generated with Artificial Intelligence. In the game, some graphic images, the paintings hanging around the house, and the voice acting are created with Artificial Intelligence.
