This game's development made partial use of generative AI tools. Generative AI (ChatGPT and ElevenLabs' image generation features) was used to create some artwork, including the title screen and field background images, the title logo, and some of the special clover and UI icons. ElevenLabs' audio generation features were used for the BGM and sound effects. Generative AI was also used to help localize the game into languages other than Japanese (English, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Korean, Russian, Spanish, Brazilian Portuguese, German, and French). All AI-generated assets and translations were reviewed and adjusted by the developer before being incorporated into the game.
Lumenfall is built by a small studio using AI-assisted development tools. Some pre-generated content — including portions of the game's code, the store page text, and the 2D promotional/capsule artwork and achievement icons — was created with the help of AI tools, always under human direction and review. The game does not generate any content with AI at runtime; everything you play is fixed, hand-tuned content.
Some temporary horror sound effects and vocal effects in this game were created using generative AI tools during development. These assets have been reviewed and integrated by the developer. As development continues and resources become available, these temporary AI-generated audio assets may be replaced with recordings created by professional voice actors and sound engineers to further enhance the game's atmosphere and realism.
Some visual assets and references in the game were created or assisted with generative AI tools, then manually reviewed, edited, and implemented by the developer. The game does not use generative AI during gameplay and does not generate dynamic AI content for players.
Generative AI was used during development to assist in creating some pre-generated visual assets for the game and its promotional materials, as well as parts of the English localization. All AI-assisted content was reviewed by the developer and edited where necessary. No content is generated by AI while the game is running.
Many of the art assets used at this stage are AI-generated placeholders, including most of the card artwork. These AI assets help depict the overall creative style and vision that will be achieved in the full release. A Kickstarter campaign will be dedicated to raising the funds to replace the AI placeholder art.
All of the sound design, music, text and game code is entirely human-created.
Some illustrations and background art were pre-generated using AI image tools, then manually curated, edited, and tone-matched by the developer. All game text, game design, and code are human-authored. The game does not generate any content with AI at runtime.

All content included in the game is pre-generated, selected, reviewed and curated. The game does not generate new AI content during gameplay and does not connect to external AI services during gameplay.
We leverage AI to generate in-game image assets and use Suno AI to create the game’s background music. All AI-generated visual and audio materials have been manually reviewed and edited to ensure compliance with content standards.
Severwood uses generative AI as part of its development. Many visual assets — including character art, backgrounds, and card illustrations — were created with the assistance of AI image-generation tools, then selected, edited, and assembled by the developer to fit the game's art direction. Some code was written with AI assistance, directed and reviewed by the developer. Game design, writing, planning, and systems are created and directed by the human developer. No AI-generated content is produced live during gameplay; all assets are fixed and were finalized during development.
ElevenLabs was used to create pre-recorded voice-over/narration audio, including some trailer narration.
Some existing promotional/store page images were edited with AI-assisted tools for cleanup, enhancement, and visual polishing. These images were not generated from scratch by AI.
No AI-generated content is generated live during gameplay, and the game does not use live AI systems during play.
- Character photos and video clips shown in the in-game Stories feed were generated using AI tools (image and video generation), then reviewed, edited, and composited by the developer to fit the game's art direction.
- AI-assisted tools were used in parts of the development process.
AI was used as the main tool to code this game, generate assets, and navigate the release processes.
This is the core model of Shadow Games Software. Leveraging AI to do the busy work to free up creative teams to focus more on design, taste, and producing a quality product.
As the 2nd real project for the studio, Idle Energy, heavily used AI during development.
I don't know how to code, and I only speak two languages (both badly, if I'm being honest). To actually get this game running properly and make it playable, I had to use AI as a technical assistant.
I wrestled with the ethics of this because I care deeply about the line between tools and art. If this game makes any money, it will go straight into hiring professional programmers, artists, and translators.
Thank you.
Chrome Circuit is developed by a solo developer who uses generative AI as part of the production pipeline. Character and environment sprite art was created using AI image generation, then processed, edited, and integrated by hand. Portions of the game's code were written with AI assistance under the developer's direction, with all systems designed, reviewed, and tested by the developer. All AI-generated content is created during development ("pre-generated") — the game does not generate any content while you play, and no AI runs on your machine. Game design, writing, and all creative decisions are the work of the developer.
Some store page artwork, promotional artwork, and marketing assets for False Normality were created or assisted using generative AI tools. The game's design, writing direction, rule system, gameplay logic, editing, and final asset selection were created and curated by the developer. False Normality does not use live-generated AI during gameplay.
