Where do games disclose AI use?

This game uses generative artificial intelligence tools during development to assist in the creation of some game content, including certain visual assets, icons, and promotional materials. All AI-generated content has been reviewed, modified, and refined by the development team, and integrated with human-created content to ensure that the final presentation meets the game's overall artistic direction and quality standards.

Generative AI tools were used during development to assist with some pre-generated 2D artwork and UI imagery, 3D models and animations, instrumental music and sound effects, localization drafts, and portions of the game code. As a solo developer, I selected, edited, integrated, and reviewed all of these outputs before inclusion. The game does not generate content at runtime and does not send player input to generative AI services.

استُخدمت أدوات الذكاء الاصطناعي أثناء التطوير للمساعدة في كتابة أجزاء من كود اللعبة وبعض النصوص داخلها، مثل التلميحات ورسائل الواجهة، وكذلك في إنشاء بعض النماذج ثلاثية الأبعاد والخامات (التكستشر). جميع المحتوى المُنجز بمساعدة الذكاء الاصطناعي تمت مراجعته وتعديله واعتماده من المطوّر. قصة اللعبة وتصميمها وإخراجها من صنع الإنسان بالكامل، ولا يتم توليد أي محتوى بالذكاء الاصطناعي أثناء اللعب.

OpenAI Codex was used during development to assist with writing, reviewing, and debugging portions of the game’s code. All AI-assisted output was reviewed, edited, and integrated by the developer. The game does not use generative AI during gameplay, and no player input is sent to a generative AI service.

Covers of game have been made with help of AI

Generative AI was used strictly to create temporary concept art and placeholder assets during early development. All of these placeholders are being systematically replaced with custom or commissioned assets prior to the game's final release.

This game uses generative AI tools during development to assist in creating some 2D textures and 3D models. These AI-generated assets have been manually reviewed, edited, and integrated into the final game build.

We use AI to create the music and the narration audio.

Some pre-rendered UI art (menu borders and decorative icons) was created with the assistance of generative AI tools during development. No content is generated live during gameplay.

Used AI to generate concept ideas and take care of tedious tasks to speed up preproduction. All assets, including store images and thumbnails, are NOT AI generated. Images provided to us by Patron supporters may or may not have been created using artificial intelligence.

AI was used only as a supporting tool for the design of fictional images on the videotapes.

Our Policy on AI & Procedural Generation Valenfeld is built by one person, on a shoestring budget, with an Elder Scrolls–sized ambition. Here is exactly how, and why, AI fits into that. Why we use it Valenfeld is a solo indie project chasing a scope that normally takes a studio of dozens: a massive, hand-lorekept world you can wander for years without hitting an edge. That scope is not achievable by one person typing every tree, every ruin, and every line of dialogue by hand on a shoestring budget and an ambitious timeline. So we lean on AI-enabled workflows and, more importantly, cutting-edge procedural algorithms to scale content production and world scale to match the ambition — not to replace it. What always stays human Every piece of content in the game — every place, character, creature, item, quest, and line of lore — is built and overseen by a human creator and judge, grounded in our own ideas, our own lore, and our own systems design. AI does not decide what Valenfeld is. It never originates the world's canon, its themes, or its design intent on its own; it accelerates producing what we've already decided the world should be, and everything it touches is reviewed before it ships. Not AI slop — procedural generation is the point We're not interested in dumping raw model output into the game and calling it done. Our actual goal is an experimental, large-scale world built on cutting-edge procedural algorithms — terrain, dungeons, towns, ecosystems, even history — designed to be massively replayable for years, not a one-and-done AI slideshow. AI-assisted tooling is one part of the production pipeline that gets us there faster on a small budget; the procedural systems and the authored lore they run on are the actual craft, and that's where our attention to detail goes. Our bet We believe that if we focus relentlessly on delivering the best game possible — with a genuinely obsessive eye for detail on everything we ship — we can produce something great on a low budget and a small team of one. That is the bar we hold ourselves to, not "shipped fast" or "shipped cheap." As we grow This is how we build today, as a solo project with an ambitious scope and timeline. If and when Valenfeld earns a bigger budget for this game or for future releases, we intend to keep building just as ambitiously — with a team of art, lore, and gameplay experts working alongside these same tools, not replaced by them. Thinking about the best possible game comes first; everything else, including how we scale to build it, follows from that. — Metatransformer Studios

Generate art resources using AI

One promotional artwork seen on the store page has been created with the help of AI tools. We are actively working on replacing it within the coming days.

Currently, the game uses around 10% conceptual/placeholder AI-generated textures. All of these placeholders will be completely replaced prior to the 1.0 full release. The following are temporary AI placeholder textures: - Most UI buttons - Vehicle textures - The home screen - The mouse cursor - Most of the shop scene - All bridges The following are NOT AI textures (100% custom-made): - All enemy models and textures (minus the boss "evil reforged bot mk9001") - All item icons and textures - All levels (except for the underground bunker and frozen ridge, which temporarily share the home screen texture)

It was used for an image included in the game.
