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 used to create the 2D promotional artwork for the Steam store page (including the capsule images, library assets, and marketing GIFs). The AI generated these marketing assets using screenshots of actual in-game pixel art as a direct reference to ensure an accurate representation of the gameplay.
Yes. The game uses AI for localization translation (8 languages) and AI-assisted pixel art generation. All AI-generated assets have been heavily edited and refined by the developer to fit the game's dark pixel art style and narrative context.
Developer's Note: This is a solo-developed indie game, and the developer is not a professional artist. Therefore, generative AI was used during the production of art assets.
This game was developed with AI collaboration. Visual assets including unit sprites, tile textures, and promotional artwork were created with the assistance of generative AI. Game code was developed with AI pair programming. All AI-generated content was reviewed, curated, and refined by the developer. No AI content is produced dynamically during gameplay — all assets and code are pre-made and shipped with the game.
Some visual and audio assets in this game were created with the assistance of generative AI tools. All content was reviewed, edited, and integrated by the developer to ensure quality and consistency.
This product uses AI tools to assist in generating code, art assets, and other content. All AI-generated materials have been significantly edited, modified, and polished by human developers to ensure originality, quality, and compliance with copyright regulations.
We utilize generative artificial intelligence during our development process strictly as an art-assistance tool. Unlockable player avatars, profile badges, and chat emotes were created or conceptualized using AI image generators.
AI generative has been moderately used for some graphic assets like background images or some collectible characters.
AI generative has been also moderaterly used for coding support to fasten operations.
All in game characters and elements had been strictly and manually designed in pixel art.
The music and sound are absolutely produced without AI
Generative AI tools were used to refine store descriptions and assist with the translation of certain UI elements to provide a better experience for international players. All visual assets and core gameplay mechanics are original creations.
The background music in this game was created using generative AI (Suno AI). Every audio track has been personally reviewed and edited by the developer. Furthermore, all content is used in full compliance with the commercial usage rights provided by the tool's official licensing.
Some visual assets in the game were partially generated using AI tools and further edited by the developer. No AI-generated content is created during gameplay.
Some content in this game was created with the assistance of generative AI tools during development, including certain visual assets, store artwork, capsule art, and text. All AI-assisted content was reviewed, edited, and integrated by the developer to ensure it fits the game’s design and overall player experience.
Some art assets are sourced from the CC0 asset libraries provided by Kenney. Music and sound effects used in the game are sourced from Phat Phrog Studio and ZapSplat.
Generative AI tools were used to assist in the conceptual design of the game's logo, as well as for translating and polishing in-game text and store page descriptions into multiple languages. All core visual assets, including the pixel art, character designs, and cover illustrations, are strictly and entirely hand-crafted by the human developer.
AI was used as limited support in creating certain elements.
All generated content was reviewed and manually adjusted by the developer.
There is no AI-generated content during gameplay.
All assets used have valid commercial licenses.
AI tools assisted with game design documentation, initial draft text content, and development planning. The initial AI-generated in-game texts have been replaced with hand-written translations (German complete; English replacement in progress). All in-game content is reviewed and curated by the developer. No AI is used during gameplay.
Dead Reckoning is written, and designed by one person. I want to be precise about where AI tools do and don't appear in it.
Creative content — no generative AI. All writing, narrative, and design is mine. I've worked as a technical writer for twelve years; the game's voice is my own. All art and visual assets are hand-made or licensed from named human artists. All music and sound effects are licensed from named human creators (public domain / Creative Commons) — none of it is AI-generated. This is a hard line and I intend to keep it.
Development & release tooling — where AI assists. I use AI in the engineering and release pipeline only, never to author the game itself:
- Coding assistance while writing the game's GDScript.
- An automated QA/test harness that plays the simulation thousands of times to catch crashes and balance regressions.
- Assistance in building linters (Valve YAML sheets) that check the project's text.
- Drafting and summarizing the release notes (patch notes) from the project's changelog.
None of this creates any of the writing, art, audio, or design inside the game.
Localization. The four translations (German, French, Italian, Spanish) are machine-translated by DeepL from my English source, with automated guards that fall back to English wherever a translation would break. This is an accessibility vs. quality decision, and I decided on the former. Proper localizations are planned and will be contracted out if the budget allows.
Some parts of the game content were created with the assistance of artificial intelligence.
AI tools were used during the writing process of certain cases to support idea generation and narrative structuring. All content was reviewed, edited, and finalized by the developer.
Additionally, some visual assets found in the in-game gallery were generated using AI-based tools and curated to match the game's style and atmosphere.
This game's art assets, including sprites, UI elements, and visual designs, were created with the assistance of generative AI tools. Audio and gameplay programming were developed without AI-generated content. All AI-generated assets have been reviewed and curated by the developer.
Some visual assets in this game were created with the assistance of generative AI tools, specifically the store page capsule artwork and the title sequence logo image. All gameplay, level design, code, and audio were created by the developer.
Generative AI "Gemini" was utilized across various stages of development, including coding and image generation.
While AI helped improve development efficiency, all final adjustments and quality control were performed manually with the utmost care to ensure the best possible experience for our players.
AI was used as a coding assistant and for assistance with sprite animation. However none of the art was fully generated by AI. All art, be it music or drawn, was originally created by myself, the sole developer, or from open source creators.
AI tools were used only during development for tasks such as code assistance and partial media creation (e.g., some music elements).
No AI systems run in the game itself, and AI does not affect gameplay or player experience
AI tools were used to accelerate game development and localization.
No real-time AI generation during gameplay.
The game contains a humorous nod to AI culture inspired by the development process.
Generative AI was carefully used for structuring the majority of content available in the decks, given the vast breadth of the topics/languages available. However, every piece of information was extracted from publicly available curated sources, where AI was used for the re-writing the facts into questions. Also, in general the distractors (wrong answers) are intelligently chosen at runtime based on similar answers of similar length, however it can occur that certain answer pools where too small for reasonable gameplay. For this, fake answers were generated by AI as well, albeit rarely.
