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

Musics only.

Some of the artwork in this game — including bumper, ball, table and mark sprites — was created with AI-assisted pixel art tools and then reviewed, edited and assembled by hand. The world and boss music comes from licensed artists who state that they work with AI assistance; the sound effects are not AI-generated. Parts of the source code were written with AI assistance. No content is generated by AI while playing.

Generative AI tools were used during the art creation process to generate initial inspiration and drafts. All final art assets were then redrawn, refined, and finalized by the developer to ensure visual consistency, polish, and alignment with the game's overall tone.

We used generative AI tools to create the video content shown on the in-game pinball machine, and some of the promotional assets on our store page. All AI-generated content is reviewed by our team before release.

Generative AI tools were used during development to create all visual artwork, sound effects, and music in Matchinko, including artwork used in store and marketing materials. AI tools also assisted with code, debugging, and drafts of some written content. All generated material was reviewed, selected, edited, tested, and integrated by the developer before inclusion. The game does not generate content using AI at runtime, connect to external AI services during play, or send player data to AI systems.

This game uses AI-assisted translation for the Steam store page and some in-game UI text. As a solo indie developer with limited resources, AI translation helps make the game accessible to more players and support a wider range of languages.

Generative AI was used to assist with initial drafts of some localized text. All final translations were manually reviewed and edited. No AI-generated artwork, animation, audio, code, or live-generated content is included in the game. All visual assets shown in the game and on the store page were created by human artists.

Generative AI tools were used to assist in creating some pre-generated 2D visual assets and promotional artwork. All generated material was selected, edited, composited, and integrated by the developer. The game does not generate AI content during gameplay and does not send player data to generative AI services.

Generative AI was used during development to create 22 music tracks with AI music-generation tools licensed for commercial use and to draft portions of the non-English localization and store-page text. All AI-assisted material has been reviewed and finalized by the developer. The game does not generate content or code with AI during play and does not connect to external AI services at runtime.

AI agent is used during the production of this game.

Generative AI was used in a limited capacity for pre-generated visual assets and localization assistance during development. Temporary AI-generated artwork will be replaced with original artwork before the full release.

AI is used to translate/localize this game. AI is used to assist programming of this game.

Generative AI is used for creating certain in-game image assets and translating text, as well as for translating text on the store page.

During the development process, generative AI was utilized to assist in drafting and refining select in-game text, as well as to facilitate the multilingual localization of the store page copy. Furthermore, generative AI tools were employed to aid in concept design during the creation of the game's store page key art, various marketing materials, and community assets.

We use generative AI as an aid for some 3D models.

AI was used for creation of store page art assets and translation to languages other than English and German.

The game's programming, art assets, and music are mostly generated with the assistance of AI.

This game utilizes pre-generated AI content across multiple disciplines, including visual assets, code optimization, and audio design. These tools were used strictly to assist a solo developer in the production process. All AI-assisted assets have been thoroughly vetted to ensure they adhere to copyright and intellectual property standards, and no live-generation tools are present in the build.

Some audio, Some Code

The vast majority of the art and audio assets was manually crafted, planned and designed. Some textures, particle systems and shaders have been generated with the assistance of artificial intelligence.

I'm a solo dev and the game is still in an early state of development. It contains AI generated assets that are being used as placeholders until I can replace them properly. This includes plugin illustrations, some module sprites, and a few sound effects. None of the current assets, including the ones I made with Paint, will be kept in the final game.

Some of the promotional and storefront images were created with AI tools and then refined by hand. All of the in-game assets were designed by a 3D artist.

Part of the artwork images on this game’s store page were generated by AI.

We use AI for both development and creative support. Assets generated by both AI and humans are collaboratively refined by AI and humans before being used in the game.

Some sound effects and supplementary music tracks were created using generative AI tools. No AI-generated visuals or gameplay elements are used in the game itself.

Some elements of the game were created with the help of AI-assisted tools and were then further developed through manual work — modified, improved, and integrated to align with the game’s overall style and vision.

Various AI assisted content may be included such as music and graphical assets

AI tools were used during development for prototyping, text correction, and translation support. No AI-generated images or assets are present in the final game or on the store page. All visual and gameplay content is original and created by the developer.

AI was used for production tasks such as background removal on digitized sprites, interpolation frame generation, and some UI elements. Core visuals are a mix of traditional pixel art and 90s-style digitized assets. All music and sound effects are original and human-made.

Some in-game sprites are made by hand, some used AI generation in the process. AI was used to assist in localization.

Neural net audio was generated for speech narration.

During the development process, we may use procedural- and AI-based tools to assist with content creation. In all such cases, the final product reflects the creativity and expression of our own development team.

Some of the game images are generated by AI.

AI has been used to help develop the game's cover art.

The localization of this game is assisted by AI.

Some of the art texture is generated by AI.

AI is used for cinematic cutscenes and certain 2D assets, but the majority of the work is done manually. The characters are actually hand-painted. Similarly, code workflows include partial generation for certain C++, C#, and HLSL functions.

During our creative processes, we may use modern digital tools that include AI-based features to assist with content creation. This helps us stay innovative without losing sight of what makes our games truly unique, while ensuring the final product preserves the distinctive style and quality our development team strives for.

Store page translation into some languages was made with the assistance of AI.
