Where do games disclose AI use?

Pre-generated generative AI was used during development to assist with the creation and refinement of some 2D pixel-art assets, including characters, animals, equipment, environments, and user-interface elements, as well as localized text. All AI-assisted content was reviewed, edited, and integrated by the developer. The game does not use live-generated AI and does not generate content during gameplay.

Ai tools have been used as part of production, with none used directly as final art.

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 was used during development to create or assist with code, 2D art, UI assets, icons, music, sound effects, narrative text, localization, and store marketing materials. All AI-assisted content was reviewed, selected, modified, and integrated by the developer before being included in the game. The game does not generate AI content during gameplay and does not connect to external AI services.

This game uses AI-assisted tools during development, limited exclusively to programming assistance, multilingual translation assistance, drafting assistance for written store page copy, and a synthesized voice used for the narration of our promotional videos. The narration script is written by the development team. Only the voice reading it is synthesized, and it appears in promotional videos only. It is not part of the game, and no AI-generated output is integrated into the game itself. All content is manually reviewed, edited, integrated, proofread, and tested by the development team before use. AI is not used to create characters, character illustrations, character-related artwork, animations, music, sound effects, narrative, or other core creative content. Our sound effects are public domain field recordings, and the music in our videos is licensed from human authors. The game does not generate content in real time while running, nor does it connect to external AI services to provide generative features to players.

Generative AI was used to assist with artwork, UI elements and sound effects. No AI content is generated 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.

Generative AI tools were used during development to assist with creating certain puzzle artworks, background visuals, and ambient music tracks. The game does not feature any real-time, live AI generation while playing.

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.

Some of this game's artwork - the Steam achievement icons and a number of interface icons - was created with a generative image model, then hand-selected, cropped and colour-matched by the developer. In-game text and the English localisation were also drafted with AI assistance and reviewed by the developer. The game does not generate any content while you play, and it does not connect to any AI service.

The store page header and the asteroids in game used the AI generated arts.

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-generated content is used during development as temporary placeholder material. Nearly all of it has already been replaced, and the final game will contain only original artwork created by human artists.

Store page text (the short and long descriptions) was drafted with the help of a generative AI language model, then reviewed and edited by the developer before publication. All art and audio that ships inside the game is human-made and licensed: the creature-family icons are by Lorc and Delapouite from game-icons.net (CC BY 3.0), and the sound effects are by Kenney (CC0). The store and library capsule images were composed programmatically from the game's own icon. The game generates no content at runtime.

Some of the game's artwork — environments, ships, collectible objects — was created with the help of generative AI tools, then reworked, cropped and integrated by hand by the developer.

Generative AI supported the creation of selected pre-generated visual assets, music, narrative drafts, and localized text. All AI-assisted materials were reviewed, edited, and integrated to match the game’s original world, tone, and creative direction.

All in-game visual and audio assets are procedurally generated by code at runtime. The build contains no pre-rendered AI, painted, or recorded media files. AI (Anthropic's Claude) was used during development only to help draft source code and in-game text, which was manually reviewed and edited. No AI services are accessed while running the game. The only third-party assets are two open-license fonts designed by human artists.

Generative AI was used during development to create and refine some pre-generated artwork, character animation source material, written content, localization, and marketing scenes. All such content was reviewed, selected, and fixed before release. The game does not generate content with AI during play and does not include AI chat.

Some store artwork and marketing materials were created with the assistance of generative AI tools. These are pre-generated static assets; no AI content is generated in real time during gameplay.

Game and Store Page localizations (excluding English and Portuguese - Portugal) were AI-generated.

AI was used for trailer and capsules, not in game

As this game was developed by a single developer, AI was used to a minimal extent in the creation of some visual assets.

This game uses Generative AI during development for localization and select artwork.

Generative AI tools were used to assist with certain code, UI elements, and visual effect assets. All AI-assisted content was reviewed and ultimately approved by actual humans on the development team. The game’s environments, NPCs, and related artwork were handcrafted by our artist. All gameplay design, creative direction, and final content decisions were made by the development team.

游戏开发期间借助 Claude 大模型辅助完成部分代码撰写与逻辑梳理，部分 UI 界面、动画视觉素材使用 AI 工具辅助创作。游戏整体玩法框架、核心业务逻辑、数值策划全部由开发者独立设计与校验。 游戏正式运行时不会联网访问任何 AI 服务，不会在游戏内实时生成任何玩家可见内容。

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.

We are using AI to help structure and review written code by the team. AI is also in use for some artwork that will be changed at release!

Generative AI was used to prototype and stylize most pixel art. Generative AI was NOT used for writing, music, or mechanics.

The soundtrack is AI generated with human modifications. Art, text, localizations, and store assets were made with AI assistance and human modifications. Nothing is generated at runtime, and the game never connects to an AI service.

Some UI elements had their concept art generated, then our artist carefully refined and and improved each part to ensure a cohesive experience.

Generative AI has been used to create the majority of the UI icons and to generate pictures for the in-game paintings.

Generative AI is utilized as support in the game's development, employed for concept creation, texture upscaling, and the design of icons and visual elements.

AI tools were used during development solely to assist with coding, including identifying and fixing bugs and making minor code corrections and improvements. AI does not generate any content for players during gameplay.

Quiet Sky uses generative AI during gameplay to simulate evolving societies and create narrative observation reports, summaries, Companion responses, and optional report illustrations based on the current simulation and the player’s decisions. The Steam desktop edition runs the included generative models locally on the player’s computer. Generated results vary between campaigns.

This game was created with AI‑assisted generation

Generative AI tools were used during development to assist with the creation and refinement of certain pre-generated 2D visual assets, including environment artwork, character sprites, and store marketing images. All AI-assisted content was reviewed and edited by the developer before inclusion. No AI-generated content is created during gameplay, and the game does not connect to any external AI service.

Generative AI tools were used to assist with the development and coding of the game, including generating, modifying, and troubleshooting code that ships with the game.

Some art assets were generated using AI and then manually refined and adjusted.

During the early stages of development, I used AI tools as a creative and technical aid, mainly to help with parts of the code and to create early drafts of some background artwork. These were only starting points in the development process. The materials were then reviewed, adapted, modified, and integrated as part of the game’s overall development.

Text-based conversations with 12dora in-game are produced in real time while the game is running, powered by an integrated large language model (LLM).

AI was used for some in-game localization, and translation.

Some character, monster, and environment art, and some music, were created with generative AI before release. Nothing is generated by AI during play.

UI

AI was used to help create localized versions of the game and store page, as well as some 3D models.

We are a two-person indie team with over a decade of real-world game development experience. Pat has been making games for 10 years, and Nate was a professional working artist long before generative AI tools existed. We know AI in games is a dealbreaker for some folks, and we struggle with how much to use it ourselves. We want to be completely upfront about how we built this so you have the full picture: - Visuals: We used generative AI alongside our standard software to speed up ideation and automate tedious tasks. Every final in-game element is as handmade as any other pre-LLM digital art. Most of the icons were licensed from a third-party. - Code: We used AI assistants for pair-programming and troubleshooting complex engine logic on a project that two non-engineers couldn't otherwise build alone. No content is generated live in-game at runtime. We believe in total transparency with our players. We built this game to celebrate developers, and we want to be completely open about how we made it. As busy parents navigating the job hunt during development, these tools gave us the leverage to build and ship an ambitious project that we simply couldn't have created otherwise.

AI was used to assist in localizing the game in the many different languages, to increase it's target demographic.

Generative AI tools were used to create and refine selected promotional artwork for the Steam store page. All resulting materials were reviewed and curated by the developer. The game does not generate AI content during gameplay or connect to external AI services.
