Public Steam disclosure research25,508 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.
Generative AI was not used for in-game art, gameplay assets, systems, or core game content.
AI translation tools were used only for some additional text added later during development. Most localization was handled by a professional translation vendor.
The only AI-generated visual assets currently used are the Steam header capsule and library logo illustrations, which were manually retouched. They are not used inside the actual game, and I plan to replace them after release if the game earns enough revenue.
I feel the AI tag for my game is not actually reasonable. i tried to explain myself to steam and to stop forcing me to set this AI toggle but the automated system is forcing me to say i used AI
Generative AI tools were used exclusively for the creation of marketing materials and store capsules. No generative AI was used to create the in-game assets, which consist of a mix of custom work and hand-crafted assets from third-party creators.
This product uses pre-generated AI-assisted content during development. AI tools were used to help create some promotional artwork, selected visual assets, and some development-support content such as text or localization assistance. The game does not use live-generated AI during gameplay.
I am a single developer. AI is used to speed up some processes, some marketing and concept materials are made with AI as a base to improve on and deliver better game.
There are optional AI soundtracks in the game.
We use generative AI tools during development to create certain pre-rendered audio assets (sound effects and background music). We ensure that prompts do not reference copyrighted works, artists, or specific intellectual property. We use commercially licensed AI services and comply with their terms of service.
This game utilizes generative AI technology to create some 3D models, background music (BGM), and sound effects to efficiently generate resources during the production process.
Some store assets (such as capsules and promotional images) were created with the assistance of AI tools due to limited resources during development. All gameplay, design, and core content of Glowbot Galaxy Defense are fully original and developed by me.
As future projects grow, I plan to collaborate with artists to further enhance the visual presentation.
Some of the game's visual elements were created using AI tools during the development stage (for example, the design of Albums). Artists manually refined all such materials. Generative AI is not used in the gameplay and does not generate any content during the game.
Most of the content is developed using traditional development practices.
However, AI tools were used to support the creation of certain 3D in-game assets and audio assets.
AI tools were used strictly during the development phase to assist with writing code scripts and drafting text descriptions. All game mechanics, logic, and assets were manually reviewed, tested, and finalized by the developer.
Generative AI was used during the development of Arcane Souls to create and iterate on visual assets, specifically the game's icon, logo elements, and UI concepts. All AI-generated content has been manually reviewed, curated, and edited to ensure it aligns with the game's artistic direction and does not violate any third-party rights or Steam’s community standards.
AI usage has been very light and, in my opinion, the correct/optimal use of AI.
AI has been predominately used in the form of a chatbot efficiency tool. I've used it to troubleshoot matchmaking logic flows, I've pasted blocks of text for it to clean up readability or catch spelling errors, I just asked it for the quickest way to change images to grayscale in MS Paint as I was creating Steam Achievements. Things like that.
I have hired an artist that claims he does not use AI, though I admit I cannot completely verify that. The hero image and some title art was developed by him. All sprite work in the game itself was made by humans. Music was pulled from various places. My brother-in-law created some songs and did not use AI. Other tracks and sound effects were pulled from free-use websites that did not make any AI disclosures.
Really truly, the heart and soul of this game is for humans made by humans. AI has been used, but only as the tool it is meant to be, not as the replacement of human creativity it is slowly elbowing its way into.
Some of the images and in game models and sounds are created using AI to speed up the development process and allow focus on core gameplay elements.
All elements are reviewed by devs.
No AI is running or applied during gameplay.
Generative AI was used to assist in the creation of certain game art assets, such as textures and UI elements. These assets were further refined and polished by our internal development team to ensure visual quality and consistency within the Unreal Engine environment.
As a solo developer starting out a hobby project, I used different AI generated images early on.
I have since, after deciding to stick with the game, attempted to clean up and change to known license images and content, or make and remake where possible.
During the development process, we may use procedural- and AI-based tools to assist with content creation. In all such cases, the final product reflects the creativity and expression of our own development team.
Some minor visual elements such as parts of the logo design and a few user-interface textures were originally assisted by generative tools and then refined manually.
Generative AI was used during development to assist with localization and limited code drafting.
All final shipped content was reviewed and edited by the developer before release.
Generative AI is starting to be used solely for sound effects, and I'm limiting my use to sound effects only.
Now, as in the future, music and art will not be created using generative AI.
As we are a 2 person team, localizations are mostly generated with AI and vetted with the ongoing help of the community.
If you would like to help with vetting and fixing the translations, head over to the discussions page to find out how on the pinned topic.
During the development and live service of the game, AI-based tools may be utilized to support in game visual content creation, marketing materials, live chat translation features, and partial in-game dialogue and script localization.
In all such cases and regardless of the workflow, the final product is a reflection of our own development team's creativity and artistic expression.
As a small indie team, we may use procedural and/or AI-based tools to assist with the development process. In all such cases, the final product reflects the creativity and expression of our own development team.
To push the creative boundaries of our small team, we used AI-powered audio tools to assist in the generation of certain audio assets. These assets were heavily curated, edited, and refined by our sound designers to ensure they align perfectly with the game's atmosphere and unique artistic vision.
Marshals of War is the result of years of work by a solo developer, supported by freelance artists and collaborators. Generative AI has been used to explore ideas and directions, influencing some assets in the game and its marketing. Handcrafted work remains the primary process behind the game’s development.
This game has used AI in debugging and some code tweaks with help from a human, and some development assets that have since been replaced with human made assets
