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.
AI is used to generate the voices and advice of two opposing royal advisers (Left and Right Councillor). Each turn they comment on the situation and recommend different actions. If the player’s decree aligns more closely with one adviser’s stance, that adviser’s credibility increases while the other’s decreases.
As the credibility gap grows, public trust is affected, reflecting rising factional tension. If an adviser’s credibility reaches zero, they resign—sometimes angrily—warning the player not to dismiss their counsel. The vacant seat is then filled by a successor adviser, represented by a different local LLM model. This creates shifting personalities and advice styles across runs.
AI does not determine the game’s outcomes. Core consequences and metric changes are resolved by the game’s rule system; AI provides narrative and guidance within that system.
This game makes use of pre-generated AI content.
Usage Details: Visual assets (specifically item sprites) and sound effects were created using generative AI software. The AI served as the primary tool for generating the foundational materials.
Verification: We confirm that all content used is free of illegal or copyright-infringing material.
Portions of the game's visual assets and certain development assistance were created with the support of generative AI tools. All AI-generated content was reviewed, edited, and integrated by the developer to ensure consistency with the game's artistic direction and quality standards.
This game uses AI-generated content as follows:
Visual Assets: Images were generated using KlingAI, with some additionally edited by hand.
Scenario: Original work by the developer (human-made)
Music: Original compositions by the developer (human-made)
Sound Effects: Royalty-free materials (not AI-generated)
AI was used as a creative tool for visual production only.
Generative artificial intelligence has been used only for marketing and promotional materials, such as concept imagery and visual assets created for external marketing purposes.
No generative AI tools are used within the game itself. All in-game content, including gameplay systems, environments, characters, narrative elements, audio, and animations, is entirely handcrafted by the development team.
The store page description, gameplay experience, and all playable content do not rely on live-generated or pre-rendered AI-generated assets.
Generative AI tools were utilized during the development process to create base assets for certain environmental textures, prop designs, and auxiliary texts. All AI-assisted contents have been manually refined and edited by the developer to fit the game's unique atmosphere and artistic vision.
1. Asset Creation: Generative AI was used to create base images for some backgrounds and non-character card illustrations (such as items or objects). All these assets have been manually edited and processed by the developer to fit the game's art style and ensure they are used appropriately.
2. Translation: AI is used, as the translation is primarily based on machine translation.
3. Real-time Generation: The game features an optional AI text generation system for exploration flavor text. This function is only activated if the player provides their own API endpoint. The generated text is based on in-game variables (player skills, partners, and floor names) and does not affect the core story or progression. It is a purely cosmetic addition for enhanced immersion.
During the development of Gloom, generative AI technologies were used to create promotional images, concept designs, and marketing videos. Additionally, certain in-game visual assets and cinematic videos displayed during gameplay were also developed using generative AI. All AI-generated content has been thoroughly reviewed, manually edited, and refined by the developer to ensure it meets the game's quality standards and atmospheric requirements.
During the development of False Testimony, generative AI tools were used to create certain graphical elements and musical compositions. However, all AI-generated content has been carefully edited, refined, and adjusted manually to match the game's artistic style and atmosphere.

During the preparation of the store page and early visual concept exploration, we may use AI-based tools as part of the research and inspiration process — for example, to explore ideas, references, or general visual directions.
All final visuals, artworks, and graphic assets presented on the store page and used in the game itself are created, edited, and finalized by human artists using standard digital art and design tools. AI is not used for generating final images or in-game assets.
All illustrations in the game are 100% AI-generated. All assets are pre-rendered and fixed, meaning no illustrations or scenarios are generated by AI in real-time during gameplay.
For the development of Great Library, generative AI tools were used to assist in the creation of static visual assets, including environmental textures, character concept art, and store page promotional imagery. All AI-assisted content has been manually reviewed, refined, and integrated by our development team to ensure quality and consistency. There is no live-generated AI content, code, or real-time generation used during gameplay.
Generative AI tools were used during the development process to assist with coding and debugging. Additionally, AI tools were utilized to create and edit certain visual assets for the user interface (UI) and store page marketing materials. All content generated or modified by AI has been manually reviewed and finalized by the developer.
This game utilized AI tools exclusively to assist in writing and optimizing a portion of the underlying code during development. All other elements, including visual assets, 3D models, music, and sound effects, were created entirely without the use of AI. All AI-assisted code underwent manual review and testing to ensure game quality and stability.
AI Usage in Visual Assets and Audio
All AI-generated content has been manually reviewed, edited, and integrated by the developer to ensure quality and coherence.
The visual assets were manually composited and detailed using Photoshop. Algorithmic tools were utilized only to generate initial base textures and references, which were then significantly transformed and overpainted to match the game's specific style.
AI Content Disclosure
Some visual assets in this game were generated using AI tools and then curated, edited, and integrated by the developer. All characters, locations, and artwork are original and fictional.
No AI generated content is used to dynamically change gameplay or other ingame mechanics. However, this game includes music tracks created using AI. As a solo developer with a limited budget, I chose to use AI generated music to ensure the game feels full and engaging rather than empty. These AI generated songs are part of the ingame experience and contribute to the player’s enjoyment.
In the development of this work,
-Some of the still backgrounds include AI-generated materials that have been added and corrected.
・In addition to free illustrations and assets, AI-generated materials are included for reference for some still compositions.
・About 3 of the 19 songs included in the soundtrack,
After composing by the creator himself, some of the arrangements are based on AI-generated material.
Players can freely converse with NPCs, and the game will generate dialogue in real time based on the NPCs' personalities and memories.
The main storyline will be driven by AI agents, which will generate plotlines consistent with the game's lore.
AI was only used to enhance images we already had, giving them a look more in line with the game style. Its use was limited solely to images for the store page and game icons.
We use AI in early conceptual design, to figure out an appropriate background art. We then go through several iterations manually with artist modifications, to produce a good, highly polished background that gels well with our characters, story and intended art style.
Our characters are hand drawn by humans.
Our objects are hand drawn by humans.
All user interface (UI) elements are hand drawn by humans.
All animations are hand drawn and meticulously rigged (also by humans) using bone animation.
AI is used as an assistant for coding, writing, and translation.
All AI‑generated materials are manually reviewed, and most are manually edited before inclusion in the game.
Some store capsule, library, and marketing artwork were generated using AI tools and then manually edited by the developer.
No AI-generated content is used during gameplay, and the game does not generate AI content live while running.
For this project, AI tools were used in art direction and soundtrack production. As an independent team, this has allowed us to achieve a visual and sonic scale that would otherwise be impossible. However, every asset has been manually supervised, edited, and curated to ensure the author's artistic vision and narrative remain intact. We believe in AI as a tool that amplifies the potential of independent creators.
Generative AI was used for the production of SOME art assets. Some are completely handmade, Some are almost entirely AI with additional human editing. This normally varies by game where one will have lots of AI and one will be completely handmade.
Art assets refer to images and music.
No AI ever runs during runtime.
