During the development of Star Surge, generative AI tools were used to assist in designing certain in-game visuals (such as achievement icons) and promotional materials. AI was utilized as an aid to accelerate the visual production process, and all generated content was adjusted to fit the game's sci-fi theme. The core mechanics and coding of the game were developed entirely by hand.
This game uses AI-generated audio effects (via ElevenLabs) for a limited set of sound effects, layered and processed alongside licensed library sounds. As a solo developer on a tight budget, this let me create specific, bespoke sounds without the cost of a full custom audio pack for assets that are only used a handful of times.
Some of these may be replaced with human-composed audio as the game develops.
Some background music inside the game was created with generative AI tools. Generative AI was also used as a development assistant for some debugging, and code building. The game does not use live AI generation during playing.

All AI-assisted content is generated during development and reviewed before release; the game does not generate content while you play.
This game uses generative AI for the following:
Images: the source material for both the scene artwork and the item icons (backpack, hand cart and so on) is photographs taken by the developer — the scenes in the lanes, stairwells and apartment courtyards of Anping, Tainan; the items shot as physical objects. Each photograph is processed first — removing things that should not appear in frame, commercial branding, and anything touching on privacy — and then stylised into animation by AI.
Music: planned to be AI-generated (not yet implemented).
Localisation: Traditional Chinese is the language the game is written in. Every other language — English, Japanese, German, and Taiwanese Pe̍h-ōe-jī — is AI-translated, with no native-speaker editing pass. If you find a mistake, please do tell me.
Store page and marketing images also include AI-generated elements.
