Public Steam disclosure research25,380 disclosures tracked
Where do games disclose AI use?
Search developers’ Steam disclosures, compare classified AI use across
games, and follow recorded changes.
This index adds cross-game classifications and statistics to
statements published on individual store pages.
Groups reflect automatic analysis of public disclosures; mature records are excluded. These counts do not measure AI use across all of Steam.
Missing or unclear statements cannot establish whether a game uses AI.
We confirm that AI-assisted tools were used in the development of our game. The specific scope and manner of use are as follows:
1. Type of AI-Generated Content:
* Text Content: We used AI text-generation tools to assist in creating initial drafts for some of the in-game copy during the early conceptual stages of development.
* This includes content for:
* Background stories and design documents for boss characters, frigates, and other units.
* Descriptive text for player skills.
* Preliminary outlines and descriptions for the game's overall story background.
* In-game text such as enemy names and skill descriptions.
2. Our Workflow and Human Oversight (The Key Part):
* AI's role was that of an "Assistant Tool": The AI was used solely to generate preliminary, unpolished text drafts and inspiration based on core ideas and directions provided by our producers.
* Deep Human Optimization and Review: All AI-generated text underwent strict review, selection, rewriting, and optimization by our producers and development team. We ensured:
* Creative Direction: The final design direction and core ideas were entirely determined by the human team.
* Content Ownership: We hold full and legal rights to all final content included in the game. The content, after profound human modification and optimization, is no longer a purely AI-generated product but the intellectual property of our team.
* Quality and Compliance Control: We ensured all textual content met our quality standards and Steam's distribution rules, containing no infringing, offensive, or inappropriate material.
3. Commitment and Assurance:
* We guarantee that the final version of the game does not directly include any unmodified AI-generated output.
* We take full responsibility for all content in our game.
In Summary: AI was used as a tool for assistance and inspiration during the design phase, but the final generation, approval, and copyright of all game content are the sole responsibility of our human development team.
I added scenes and images improved with Generative Artificial Intelligence.
They are locally generated using Stable diffusion, without resorting to paying any generative AI company. Although paying them could have given me better tools and results, I decided not to pay for their use to support the claim of artists for fair royalties. (It is not possible to discuss such a complex issue here, but I will consider opening a discussion on the topic in the game forum, follow my game to be notified if it is created)
Most of the artistic content in the game, mainly music, is compensated in various ways depending on the case to its artists.
My original content is registered, but the images generated by AI are essentially treated as 'creative commons' and I consider them fanarts of my characters.
All added scenes and backgrounds are of high quality and maintain good coherence, avoiding deformities in hands, eyes, etc., and without annoying or confusing shapes.
All AI-generated images are generated, selected, and edited exclusively by me, the creator of the game, to reflect my original vision, previously inaccessible due to high costs.
I have sought to include only select content that enriches the narrative and immersion of the game.
1. We used ChatGPT-4 to make some custom javascript plugins.
2. Used ChatGPT-4/DALL-E3 to generate some of the faces of NPC's, also some icons for the system menu.
During the beta phase of Steel Hunters, we may use AI-generated voices for certain in-game characters, including the announcer, to support our development process. The majority of the voices in the game are performed by real voice actors, and AI-generated voices will be replaced with human voices before the official launch. This helps us focus on delivering the best experience while the game is still in development.
We have used an AI voice over for the tutorial and other voice prompts where its is anticipated we will need to quickly change the voice during Early Access due to player feedback.
Political Arena is being produced by a small team on a tight budget. We’re proud to have worked with a number of gifted artists, designers, developers and other creators on many of our core systems and assets.
We have employed AI art assets only when it exceeds our budget capacity to provide fair wages for our team. We have employed AI to create or modify specialized, low-frequency art assets including art for certain event windows.
Nearly all of our game’s most visible art assets, including its UI, backgrounds and character art were all produced by experienced artists.
The audio for the voicelines for CARA (suit voice) and the ship announcer was generated by text to speech AI and then post-processed manually through an effect chain to sound immersive.
AI was used only to help generate some of the props for the game's cover, as well as to create text-to-voice lines for a couple of the robotic characters in the game.
During the development phase, some placeholder voices and vocal prototypes are generated using AI tools. These are used solely for iteration, testing, and internal production workflows.
For the final release, all characters will be voiced by professional voice actors.
Generative AI Integration:
During the early access phase, Morgenstern leverages generative AI to create placeholder assets, including images, sound effects, and text. This approach allows for rapid prototyping and iterative development, ensuring a dynamic and evolving gaming experience as we refine and enhance the final content.
We use prerendered AI generated voices for in-game voice overs for dialogue.
It is a paid asset on the Unity Asset Store: https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/tools/generative-ai/deepvoice-ai-text-to-voice-251738
Some visual elements in this game were initially generated with the help of AI tools. All such material has been extensively refined, altered, and expanded by a human creator to form the final in-game content.
AI Voice generation was used to generate voice of the in-game AI character (AI assistant ZERA is speaking to the player).
AI was used to help the human editor person to correct dialogues written by a human.
Our Art department uses generative AI at times in order to create distinctive 2D visuals for marketing materials, ensuring each piece aligns with Steam's guidelines and copyright laws. All the generated content is carefully curated, ensuring that a respectful gaming environment. This AI-assisted content enhances the aesthetic appeal of our game, while adhering to ethical standards.
AI is used to visualise some characters, locations, text, etc. for promotional materials and to enhance or support illustrations or textures. It is used sparingly to support and enhance rather than replace human effort.
