About Generative AI Content
We want to be transparent with our players about how AI was used during the development of this game:
Visual Art: Certain visual assets and background elements in this game were created with the assistance of generative AI tools, then reviewed and integrated by our team.
Code & Development: We utilized AI-powered coding assistant and large language models to help prototype, write, and optimize parts of the game's code to speed up development efficiency.
All AI-generated outputs shipped to players have been curated to ensure they meet our quality standards for your experience.
This game’s player-facing art, writing, and audio were created with generative AI and then selected, edited, and directed by the developer. Store images and trailers use the same pre-generated assets. No content is generated live during gameplay.
Some of the 3D models shipped with this game were generated with Meshy, an AI model generation tool, and then reworked by hand (retopology, rigging in Blender, hand made materials and animations). This covers the player character, the alien customers, and part of the props, weapons, vehicles and buildings. The creatures you catch were not generated with AI. No content is generated by AI while you play.
We used AI tools during development: part of the source code was written with an AI
assistant, and part of the pixel art was generated with PixelLab. Everything was
reviewed, edited and tested by the developer by hand. The game generates nothing at
runtime — all content is fixed in the build and identical for every player.
I (Sean) use AI coding assistants: GitHub Copilot and Claude Code. I've written software for years and I teach games programming at university, and I use AI tools the way I use a profiler or a compiler. They helped build web tools Dave and I use to balance the ecosystem across long simulations, they're very good at finding edge-case bugs (I'm looking at you, pathing system), and they write the boilerplate for things like save states and UI. I never ship code I haven't read and thoroughly tested.
No content in this game is AI-generated, and no generative AI runs while you play.
Every sound, art and music asset in this game was made by a human. The game started out as the idea of “Asset Safari” around the concept of buying sprite packs from artists, which is what we have done. The music, sound and writing is also all human generated.
Generative AI tools were used to create some visual assets for the game and its promotional materials, and to assist with writing and translating the store page descriptions. This content is prepared in advance. The game does not use generative AI to create content during gameplay.
AI was used to help code the game, and some of the in-game text was generated by it (and checked my grammar). I love video games, but I work in the financial universe, so without AI I would not be able to mechanically develop the game and do all the steps as a solo project. (Kudos to solo developers pre-AI, next level people)
Some of the game's 2D art, character voice acting, and localization content utilized generative AI assistance during production. All related content was generated and manually reviewed before release; no generative AI-generated content will be used during gameplay.
Generative AI tools were used to assist in the creation of some 3D models and textures in this game. All such content was pre-generated during development, reviewed and adjusted as necessary by the developer before being included in the game. The game does not use generative AI to generate content during gameplay.
Store marketing images (Steam capsule art — header, main, small, and vertical capsules) were created with AI image generation tools and then edited/reviewed by the development team. In-game screenshots and gameplay footage represent the actual game.
This game uses AI-assisted tools in the development of certain in-game visuals
and assets. Additionally, AI tools were used to assist in the localization and
translation of in-game text content. All AI-generated content has been reviewed
and edited by the development team. No AI is used to generate content during
gameplay, and the game does not connect to any external AI services at runtime.
During the development of Spacepawn, generative AI tools were used to speed up coding, create certain in-game visuals, and assist with localization (translations). As an indie developer, AI was utilized as a support tool to fill expertise gaps in non-programming areas such as art design and translation. All AI-generated content has been carefully reviewed and edited by us to ensure it aligns perfectly with the game's overall vision and integrity.
Generative artificial intelligence tools were used during development to help create certain visual elements (sprites) and to assist with generating portions of code. No content is generated in real time during gameplay.
Pre-generated generative AI was used to create portions of the game's Steam store marketing artwork, including key art and derived capsule and library images. The released game does not generate AI content at runtime, and players do not directly interact with generative AI.
Some assets in Keepwatch were created with the assistance of generative AI
tools. This includes portions of the icon set, UI elements, a number of sound
effects, and some character animations.
All AI-assisted output is reviewed, edited and integrated by hand to match the
game's hand-painted art direction, and none of it ships in the state it was
generated in.
Game code, systems design, economy balance and all written content are
authored entirely by hand.
Keepwatch does not use any AI systems at runtime. Nothing is generated on the
player's machine while the game is running.
This game is currently in pre-alpha, and its visual assets are still evolving.
Generative AI has been used as part of the asset creation process to help achieve more detailed and varied visuals than a purely simplistic low-poly approach. AI-generated elements are extensively iterated, customized, and integrated specifically for this game under direct developer oversight.
The current assets should not be considered final. As development progresses, we plan to replace and improve them with better versions as the game's visual direction and production evolve.
The images currently used on the Steam store page, including the capsule art, were generated using AI. All of these images will be replaced with final, original artwork when the game demo is released.
No AI-generated assets are used in the game itself.
AI tools were used during development to assist with parts of the workflow, including code, materials, graphics, and other production tasks. All generated content was reviewed, adjusted, integrated, and refined as part of the game’s development process.
Some 2D art in this game was created with the assistance of AI image generation tools and then curated, pixel-processed and hand-corrected by the developer: backgrounds, story cutscene illustrations, card art, the title logo, and the Steam store assets. All game design, systems, balance, code and the original Korean script were written by the developer. The nine non-Korean localizations were produced with AI translation assistance and then reviewed and corrected in-game. The game does not generate any content with AI while you play, and it never connects to an AI service.
I’m developing this game alongside my job and family life. So yes, I’ve used AI: without these tools, I probably would never have been able to bring a project of this scale to completion.
I remain the creative lead, the developer, and the person making all the decisions about the game. I see AI as an employee or assistant that helps me on a daily basis: it allows me to work faster, solve certain problems, and accomplish things that would otherwise have taken much more time.
Try the demo and make up your own mind: it’s up to you to decide whether it affects your enjoyment of the game in any way.
Pre-generated AI-assisted artwork is used for selected character portraits, property and location imagery, career and education illustrations, and promotional materials. All such content is reviewed and curated by the developer before inclusion. The game does not generate AI content during gameplay.
Some visual assets and 3D assets used in this game were created with the assistance of generative AI. The generated assets were edited and adjusted by the developer as needed before being incorporated into the game. No content is generated by AI in real time during gameplay.
Parts of the content shipped with this game were made with generative AI tools and then reviewed and edited by us before release: illustrations and background artwork, sound effects, organ cues and the menu music track, the spoken goal and penalty announcements in all seven interface languages, and parts of the in-game text and its translations. The same applies to our store artwork and to the trailers, which use pre-generated AI music and narration. All of it is produced before release. No generative AI runs while you play: the game creates no content or code at runtime and connects to no external AI service. Newspaper reports are assembled from prepared text and the events of your own career.
We used AI as a “support tool” in the creation of in-store visuals and certain in-game UI elements. We use AI solely as a support tool. We never leave the entire process to AI for any task.
This game uses generative AI tools in the creation of artwork. This includes store page capsule images and logos, some in-game image assets, and marketing and Steam Community materials. All AI-generated output is reviewed internally before use. No content is generated by AI during gameplay.
This game's text localization into multiple languages was assisted by AI translation tools. Three background music tracks, licensed from Pixabay, were AI-created or AI-modified by their original creators. All other artwork, audio, and game assets are human-made or sourced from licensed marketplaces — no other AI-generated content is used.
