AI translated languages

Generative AI tools were used during development to assist with creating a limited number of 2D inventory icons and portions of written text and localization. All AI-assisted content was reviewed, edited, and integrated by the developer. The game does not generate AI content during gameplay.

"Generative AI tools were used to create 2D promotional images and capsule artwork for the Steam store page. The game itself does not use real-time AI generation during gameplay."

AI tools were used for part of the art and music. Everything gets picked, cleaned up and put together by hand afterwards. There's no AI in the game itself: what you play is exactly what was built in mind.

Environments and environmental artwork are not created using generative AI. Generative AI is used as part of the early development workflow for prototyping some creature artwork, which is going to be replaced during development.

Close Enough was built with generative AI. The code, the in-game text, the level layouts and all seven translations were written by an AI assistant (Claude) working to the developer's direction, and most of what you see on screen — the objects, the whole interface — is drawn by that code rather than loaded from image files. The doodle recognition inside the game is not generative. It is a small image classifier bundled with the game, trained on Google's Quick, Draw! dataset of human-drawn doodles. It runs entirely on your own computer, sorts each drawing into one of 100 pre-defined objects and creates nothing. Your drawings are never uploaded, and the release build contains no code that could upload them. The sprites, tiles, music, sound effects and font are licensed assets made by people, not by AI. Every one of them is credited inside the game under Esc → Credits.

Some Steam store and library artwork (capsules, hero, broadcast panels, and similar marketing images) was created with generative AI, then selected and cropped by the developer. A few 3D props were blocked out with an AI modeling tool and then adjusted by hand for the game. The game itself does not use generative AI while you play. Halley, the story, fishing, and locations are human-authored. Worlds and water use traditional game systems, not live AI generation.

We are team of two with a design and development background. We have a combined decades experience shipping production-quality code and art. We use AI along with our other tools, like Blender, Substance, etc. to help us build our vision. We use AI in the early stage of concept development and prototyping, coding assistance, but everything that makes it in-game is hand-crafted and authored by us. The music is played by hand real instruments. All screen captures are 100% in-game with no alterations.

Generative AI tools were used during part of the development process. Generative AI was used for some 3D models and image assets. AI-generated assets were reviewed and adjusted by the developer before being included in the game. No content is generated by AI while the game is running.

There is no AI-generated art or audio anywhere in this game. Every sprite, animation and character design is hand-drawn by me. The game has no audio at all, and the music in the trailer is my own work too. Nothing is generated while the game runs, and it never connects to an AI service. AI was used to help with text, in three places. The store page description and short description, in all 11 languages. Translating the interface labels into the 10 languages other than English. There are only 24 strings in the whole game and no prose of any kind: 11 are labels like "Clear all" and "Cancel", and the other 13 are bird names, which are the real common names of each species, looked up per language rather than made up. Some of our Steam community and marketing posts. Chinese (both) I checked myself, and Japanese was checked at N2. Korean, Spanish, Russian, Brazilian Portuguese and German have not been checked by a native speaker.

Generative AI Disclosure: During the development of Farm Idle, generative AI tools were utilized to assist with creating and conceptualizing some 2D UI icons, menu graphics, and localized text.
