Generative AI tools were used to assist in the creation of some in-game art assets, such as icons, textures, and concept art. All AI-assisted assets were reviewed and refined by our team before implementation.
Art: AI assisted with initial sketch concepts; final artwork is entirely hand-crafted.
Localization: AI translation used for initial processing; all text is human-reviewed and optimized.
AI makes a lot of things easier for drawing, 3D, animation, code, music... but I don't use AI to avoid having to work, nor in place of my imagination: I create the lore, the character designs, the enemies and bosses, the powers and their combined effects, I write the dialogues myself and even the song lyrics.
In short, I don't use AI to create, but to produce with the means I have (I document all of this in the YouTube devlog.) And the more Tyberion takes shape, the more I replace AI assets with handmade assets.
This game uses AI-assisted tools to generate certain visual assets, such as character portraits and concept art. These assets were curated and refined by the developer to ensure quality and originality.
Mini Scouts uses generative AI tools to create certain visual assets, including hero sprites, backgrounds, and select promotional images for the store page. All AI-generated content is pre-rendered, reviewed, and edited by a human being before inclusion in the game or marketing materials.
Now, we know that AI art cannot and should not compete with human art. Hence, we'd love to bring aboard interested human artists so we can replace our gen-AI assets with assets made with love by human beings!❤️
In the game, AI technology was used to assist in generating the majority of the art and audio assets, specifically the UI, character illustrations, background illustrations, and background music. To achieve the desired visual effect, I will manually make secondary modifications to the generated assets after they are produced.
I am fully aware that AI-generated work cannot compare to the creations of outstanding artists and musicians, and I completely understand any attitude you may hold toward AI. If you are still willing to give this game a try, I would like to explain:
I apologize that, as an independent developer, from a financial standpoint, it has become difficult for me to afford a large amount of art and music content. However, this does not mean I will treat this work lightly. I have already conducted multiple rounds of optimization and replacement for the game's art and music, and this work will continue. I will bring my sincerity and dedication, within the limits of my ability, to gradually pursue results that are more satisfying to everyone.
Because this game was developed and produced by an individual with limited energy, some icons and story texts were generated with the assistance of AI and were manually screened and polished to improve the overall game quality and player experience.
AI-Generated Content Disclosure
I am a solo developer with no programming background. Before using AI, I spent three months following YouTube tutorials, deleted everything and restarted three times, and typed every line of code myself until the foundation of this game clicked.
From there, I used AI — primarily Claude — as a teacher and debugging partner across 7,000+ conversations over 16 months to learn GDScript and build every system in the game. The first line in my prompts is always "Stop being a yes sayer and always be brutal and honest."
Here is exactly what AI was and wasn't used for:
Code: I spent my first three months writing every line of code by hand. As the project grew, AI became a development partner — drafting code from my descriptions, which I then reviewed, debugged, and integrated. AI taught me programming concepts and helped me solve problems. Every design decision and system architecture is mine.
Art: AI-generated with extensive human direction and manual editing. Some pieces required 15 pages of descriptions. I often assemble final art from multiple elements — finding references, combining parts, and making hands-on edits until it matches my vision.
Animation: The first 14 enemies and 2 bosses were animated by me personally in DragonBones. For newer content, I'm exploring AI-generated animations and working to make them feel personal and consistent with the game's style — you can see examples with the later bosses. Some of these I'm still not satisfied with and will redo, which is just part of the process.
Music: I produced 350+ tracks using AI music tools and curated the best for the game. All creative direction — mood, style, placement — is mine.
Writing: All card text, lore, descriptions, and UI text are written by me. AI occasionally helps with polish.
Game Design: Every mechanic, card interaction, and balance decision comes from a lifetime of gaming — hundreds of board games, decades of Magic: The Gathering, a career at Blizzard Entertainment, and more consoles than most people can count. AI does not design games. That part is entirely human.
EDIT1: I felt the need to mention that I got diagnosed with ADHD last year, at the age of 47. The reason I could never learn coding in a traditional way is my attention span. If I am not interested it is super hard, and if I am interested it is super awesome. I get excited when I can talk and describe how I want my game to feel and function. The AI converts that to code, and together we've created a way for me to follow my dream and make a game that I want to play. I have thought to myself many times during development that I wish I knew how to make this myself, and I wish I was able to just learn and do things like most people. But here we are.
"EDIT2: I updated the Code section to be more precise. I only wrote code entirely by hand for the first three months. After that, AI and I worked together — I designed and described what I needed in detail, AI drafted it, and I reviewed, debugged, and integrated everything."
All in-game content is developed in-house by the developer.
For certain in-game content, when newly acquiring retro game cartridges, installation videos generated by AI and post-processed are played.
Portions of this game’s source code, specifically involving complex algorithms and calculation logic, were developed with the assistance of AI-powered tools to enhance development efficiency and ensure greater system stability. Additionally, a limited selection of music assets was created and refined using AI-assisted composition technologies.
All visual and graphical assets, including character designs, user interfaces, background art, and promotional materials, were entirely created by artists in our development team. No AI-generated visual content was used in any part of the game.
AI Assistant helped generate store capsule art and in-game music. Technical assistance was also provided with implementation of some game systems allowing a solo dev to punch above their weight.
AI has been utilized during the store page assets creation of this game. We have used it for the game icon creation, correcting some of the explanation texts about the game mechanics to have a clear communication with our players.
AI tools were used to create some videos, paint characters, scenarios and weapons, as well as to correct texts and help identify difficult bugs. All AI-generated material was manually reviewed to ensure quality and consistency with the project.
Certain resources, including music and images, were created with the assistance of AI.
No AI systems are included. The game does not generate text, dialogue, code, levels, characters, or voices in real time during gameplay.
