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.
HUMAN FREELANCE ARTISTS designed the locations and the characters' original looks.

However, I enriched some artwork using AI to make the game look more diverse.
Voice acting was done entirely by AI.
I will replace everything made by AI as soon as I have a bit of money. If this doesn't work for you, please don't buy the game.

As a Solo Developer, AI was used mostly for things that would otherwise take too much time or finance, such as: Voice Lines, SFX, and custom Images.
AI type used: Voice Changers, Image Generators, and Audio Generators.
During the development process, I may utilize procedural and AI-based tools to assist in the creation of certain content, including voiceover audio. In all cases, these tools are used as part of the creative process, and the final product reflects my artistic vision and expression as the developer. For example, I may use voice-changer tools or AI-assisted generation to create the voices of characters during in-game dialogues and cutscenes.
Some of the images used on the store page are AI-generated.
Certain images and 3D models used in the game are AI-generated.
Some of the text has been created with the assistance of AI.
Parts of the programming have been developed with the assistance of AI.
AI was used in the creation of the store page material. In game, there are a couple fake advertisement posters scattered for products and services. For example, the insurance advertisement seen in the game trailer.
In my game, the main character's voice is AI-generated, and I purchased Eleven Labs' starter pack for it, which gives me the rights for commercial use.
Some in-game images are generated using AI. We would like to replace this images with an artist when we can afford it, but for now it is there.
Some of the code was assisted VIA AI for teaching and troubleshooting.
We used AI tools for the following elements in the game:
- Translation of the experimental in-game languages
- Some textures (primarily wall pictures and item icons)
- Three sound effects
Why We Used AI:
We are two developers working with limited resources and without external funding or a publisher.
All other assets including 3D models, other textures, sound design, rigging, animations, story, music, and programming, were created by us.
Our goal was to achieve a distinct visual and atmospheric style that avoids both hand-painted aesthetics and asset flipping. Instead, we aimed for a more grounded, realistic look, and selectively used AI tools to support this vision.
Except English, Translations to other Languages have been generated by Various LLMs. Greek and French have been checked by native speakers
A small amount of Sound Effects have been generated by AI.
Our game uses AI for minor content improvements. Specifically, we have used an AI upscaling tool to enhance the resolution of some textures and images from our 3D models. The core 3D models and all original artistic direction were created by human artists.
AI has been used for prototyping scripts in early stages of the demo, which are no longer in the final game.
The entire localization has been done by hired native translators.
There is not a single image generated with AI in the latest build of the game, every images have been commissioned.
