Missing or unclear statements cannot establish whether a game uses AI.
Much of the 2D artwork in TRAP LAB — character sprites, enemy and boss art, and cutscene illustrations — was created with the help of generative AI image tools. Every generated image was hand-selected, edited, and assembled by the developer before being used in the game. The game's code, level design, and audio are hand-made and are not AI-generated.
Some of our store and marketing art started as AI-generated images. We used Midjourney to create the base key art for the Steam capsules, the library hero and the page background, then edited and composited those into the final images ourselves. The logo, wordmark and typography are our own work.
The game itself does not use generative AI. Every in-game asset (art, animation, UI, music, sound, and code) was made by us, by hand or with our own tools.
We’ve reviewed the AI-assisted art, we hold the rights to use it commercially, and as far as we’re aware it doesn’t infringe anyone else’s work.
Dubstep: Solar System is an AI-assisted indie game — the studio name, Vibe Coded Reality, wears it proudly. Here is exactly how generative AI was used:
MUSIC: The entire 46-track original dubstep soundtrack was generated with Suno under a paid commercial license, from prompts written by the developer — every track hand-picked from multiple takes and play-tested against the game's beat-gate timing.
CODE: Much of the game's code was written with AI coding assistants working under the developer's direction; all game design, difficulty tuning, and play-testing are human work.
STORE ARTWORK: The cover and capsule artwork were created with AI image tools, then composed and typeset by the developer.
All in-game visuals are drawn procedurally by the game's own code — no AI-generated images appear inside the game itself, and nothing is generated by AI at runtime while you play.
Generative AI was used to create some marketing assets, specifically the store capsule images and page banners. The core game content, including the code, levels, character pixel art, and music, has been traditionally developed to ensure a consistent and high-quality solo-developer experience.
Some of this game's assets were made with the assistance of generative AI tools and were reviewed, curated and hand-finished by the developer. No content is generated while you play.
Generative AI was used during development to create certain promotional artwork and some environmental background art. All gameplay mechanics, programming, level design, characters, animations, UI, and game systems were created and curated by the developer. The game does not use live-generated AI content during gameplay.
This game uses generative AI tools to assist in the creation of select visual assets and localization.
Card illustrations and art assets: AI-generated concepts serve as an early creative foundation, developed under the direction of veteran concept artist Ni Li (ArtStation portfolio available, 10+ years of artistic experience).
Localization: AI-assisted translation is used for 30+ languages.
Cover art, store page imagery and music were created with AI generation tools. All game design, writing and gameplay systems were created by the developer.
AI translation tools were used to produce the localized text for the game. Additionally, initial concept drafts for select visual assets were generated using AI, but were subsequently heavily modified, painted over, and finalized by human artists.
AI helped with some writing, troubleshooting, localization, and the Steam store page. All art, animation, music, sound effects, and level design were created entirely by me. I reviewed and edited everything AI assisted with, and several translations were also checked by native speakers. The game does not generate AI content during gameplay and does not connect to any external AI services.
Generative tools were used during development to assist in creating selected pre-generated visual assets.All AI-assisted content was reviewed, edited, and integrated by the developer.
AI is used only to generate elements for the trailer and promotional media. AI is not used in any part of the game itself, including gameplay, mechanics, or runtime systems.
Gravemaw's music was generated with Suno AI and its sound effects with
Stable Audio Open, then edited by hand — trimmed, loop-pointed and mixed —
before being placed in the game. Some store and marketing artwork was also
produced with AI assistance.
Every generated asset was reviewed by the developer before shipping. Nothing
is generated while you play: the game runs fully offline and all content is
baked into the build.
Some of the game's 2D artwork (the slot machine cabinet and its symbols) was created with the help of generative AI image tools, then reviewed, corrected and integrated by hand. Part of the soundtrack was created with generative AI music tools. All game design, gameplay code and text were authored by the developer, who also used AI coding assistants during development. Nothing is AI-generated at runtime: the game contains no live AI content.
Some of the game's 2D and 3D art assets — including 3D character models and environment props, background and biome art, and iconography — were produced with AI image/model generation tools during development, then hand-curated, edited, and processed into the game. No AI runs at play time; nothing is generated on the player's machine or via an external service.
Generative AI was used during development to assist in creating certain visual assets, initial 3D model concepts, and the composition of some melodies. All AI-generated content was manually reviewed, edited, refined, and integrated into the game by the developer. All gameplay systems, programming, balancing and game design were created manually. No generative AI is used during gameplay.
Cube Sweeper used AI assistance during development in two places. Some of the game's handcrafted curated boards began as AI-generated shapes, which were then validated and certified solvable by the game's own logic engine before anything shipped, exactly like every other board in the game. Store page artwork production was aided by AI-assisted tools. No AI is used at runtime. The puzzles are generated by a deterministic system.
This game uses generative AI to create part of its content:
- Art and sprites: generated with AI tools and manually edited in Photoshop.
- Intro cinematic: generated with Google Veo 3 and Flow, then edited.
- Some sound effects: generated or processed with AI tools, combined with recorded and licensed library sounds.
- Code assistance: parts of development were assisted by language models (Claude).
All AI-generated content was reviewed, edited, and approved by the developer. The game does NOT use AI at runtime: all content is pre-rendered.
Generative AI tools were used to assist in creating and refining some promotional artwork for the Steam store page and related marketing materials. All AI-assisted assets were reviewed and edited by the developer. No generative AI content is used in the game itself, and no content is generated during gameplay.
