AI Transparency Index: Every AI Disclosure on Steam, Tracked and Searchable

Generative AI is used to assist with the translation and localization of in-game text and Steam store page content from the original Japanese into other supported languages.

Some assets were fine tuned with the help of AI.

We used AI tools in two places during development, and in neither of them to replace creative work. Our French, Spanish, Italian, Japanese and Korean localisations are made using AI. We also used AI assistance while writing and restructuring parts of our codebase. Everything players see and hear — art, animation, sound, music, game design and all original writing — was made by people.

Generative AI tools were used during development to assist with the creation and iteration of certain visual assets.

Generative AI tools were used during development to assist with the creation of some visual assets, written content, and localization used in the game and related store materials. All AI-assisted content was reviewed and, where necessary, edited by the developer before release. The game does not generate AI content during gameplay and does not rely on external AI services while being played.

Some of this game's content was created with the assistance of generative AI tools, always under human direction and review. Portions of the painted environment artwork and the store/marketing artwork began as AI-generated images that were then curated, edited, and integrated by hand. The music was generated with a licensed AI music tool, then curated and edited. Nothing is generated by AI while you play — everything you see and hear ships as fixed, human-reviewed content.

Some art assets in the game and on the store page (story character portraits, some icons, backgrounds, and capsule images) were created with AI image generation tools, then manually curated and edited by the developer. All gameplay, code, and written story content is human-made. No AI content is generated at runtime.

Certain graphical assets, such as the game’s loading-screen images, were generated using AI.

Some pre-rendered assets were created with generative AI tools and then curated, edited and integrated by hand: music tracks and their cover art, some sound effects and portions of 2d artwork (weapon, prop, and enemy sprites.) All generated content was reviewed by the developer before inclusion. No content is AI-generated at runtime.

Sprite assets were made with AI. What can I say? I'm not an artist and can't afford one (though would love to be able to!)

Generative AI was used during development to assist with coding and the creation of pre-generated visual assets. No AI content is generated during gameplay.

The Steam graphics and promotional visuals were made using AI. However, no AI was used for any of the in-game designs or assets.

Working on replacing some audio and a few other visuals that were generated as place holder assets.

Skill icons, character portraits, and similar assets were generated using AI. All other content was created manually.

Generative AI tools were used during development to assist with selected 2D and 3D visual assets, sounds, localization, and marketing materials. All AI-assisted content was reviewed, edited, and integrated by the developer to ensure consistency with the game's visual style and intended design.

Ashen Wild was created almost exclusively with AI tools to generate the code and graphics, VFX, sound etc. The store page, website and other marketing materials were created using AI.

Generative AI tools were used to assist with store page text localization and marketing copy drafts. All content was reviewed and edited by the developer before publication.

As a solo developer, AI has been a big help in making the development of this game more efficient by assisting in, but not be the sole performer of: testing, performing repetitive and some programming tasks, brainstorming and discussions, translations and some design.

This game contains pre-generated 2D artwork and source code created with ChatGPT during development. All game source code was generated with ChatGPT, then reviewed, tested, debugged, and integrated by the developer. The artwork was generated from original prompts written for Gravefire Tavern, then reviewed, selected, edited, composited, cropped, and integrated by the developer. No generative AI runs during gameplay, and no player input is sent to an AI service.

Some 2D‑art assets in this game are created with the assistance of generative‑AI tools. These assets have been filtered, edited, composited and manually reviewed by the developer before being used in‑game. The game does not perform real‑time content generation based on player input during runtime, nor does it send any player input to generative‑AI services.

Game Design

This game was developed with the help of generative AI tools in the following areas: Some art assets, including characters, backgrounds, UI, and effects Store page capsule images and key art English localization of in-game text Portions of the source code All generated output was reviewed, edited, and integrated by the developer, and the final content is the developer's responsibility. No content is generated by AI while the game is running.

Coding assistance is used for developing the game. Building automation test suites and creating support tools.

Generative AI tools were used to assist in creating select 2D artwork for this game illustrations for collectible cards, artwork for the card battle/arena scene, and the game's logo and store capsule art. All AI-assisted artwork was selected, edited, and finalized by the development team before inclusion. Generative AI was not used to create the 3D open-world environment, or other gameplay systems/mechanics. This is for the demo build, and some or all AI-assisted art may be replaced with original human-made artwork in the full release.

"Generative AI tools were used during development to assist in creating a portion of the art, background assets, and UI icons. All AI-generated content was reviewed and manually refined by our team."

Artwork, music and parts of the text were created with AI tools and individually curated, refined and hand-fitted into the game by the developer. No AI content is generated at runtime.

The Rumble Pit is made by one person, and generative AI tools were part of how it was built. Music: the tracks you hear in the menus and in the twelve dungeons were generated with a local AI music model, from a written brief for each place, then cut, looped and mixed by hand. 2D art: the interface icons, the class and specialisation emblems, the dungeon thumbnails, the illustrated boss backdrops and the logo were produced with image generation tools, then cropped, cleaned up and colour-matched by hand. Text and code: much of the in-game text — talent names and descriptions, loot labels, boss briefings, the translation tables — and part of the source code were drafted with an AI assistant, then edited, tested and rewritten by hand. Not AI-generated: the 3D models and animations (licensed art packs), and the sound effects (CC0 libraries). Nothing is generated while you play. The game connects to no AI service and produces no new content at runtime — everything ships as a fixed file, checked before release.

Generative AI was used to create portions of music, icon art, and some textures.

Some of the visual assets in Champions of Thaloria were created with the help of generative AI tools during development. This includes parts of the store page artwork and trailer, along with a portion of the in-game 2D art such as item icons, avatar frames and class emblems.
