Some of this game's promotional and background artwork was made with generative AI tools and then edited by the developer: the store capsule/key art images, the painted title-screen background, and the cinematic clips used in the intro trailer. All gameplay, code, game design, in-game visuals (the emoji fighters, gloves, effects and UI), sound effects and music were created without generative AI. No AI content is generated during gameplay and the game does not connect to any AI service.
SIDE OUT was built with AI-assisted development tools. No artwork, audio, text or other content in the game is generated by AI. All visuals are drawn procedurally in code, and all store text is written by hand.
Artwork used on the Steam store page was created with the assistance of generative AI and was subsequently manually edited, refined, and improved. AI tools were also used to assist with the localization of the Steam store page.
Generative AI is used in this game for tasks such as music generation. As an indie game and a small software development studio, we simply do not have the budget to license a large number of well-known and popular songs. Unfortunately, nothing comes for free – so AI is used as an alternative.
AI is also used for tasks such as integrating graphics, music and beat analysis, and translating content. AI can complete time-consuming tasks within minutes that would otherwise take a human several hours.
No jobs are being replaced or put at risk through the use of AI in this project. This “crazy game” was still made with lots of love by humans. An AI probably would not have come up with a game idea like this anyway.
And because it fits the topic far too well: purely on principle, this disclosure text was of course also written with the help of AI.
### Use of Generative Artificial Intelligence
During the development of this game, I used generative artificial intelligence tools to assist me with various aspects of its creation.
AI was mainly used to create and/or improve certain visual elements of the game, including images and PNG files used in different graphical elements.
It also assisted me in creating the game’s trailer, as well as with certain scripts and technical elements that were particularly complex to implement. In these situations, AI was used as an assistance tool to help me develop, adapt, and finalize certain elements.
The use of artificial intelligence does not mean that the game was entirely created by AI. The game’s design, artistic direction, gameplay, development, and final integration of the different elements were carried out and supervised by me.
I want to be transparent with players regarding the use of these technologies in the creation of the game.
I’m a solo developer doing my first-ever coding project. With no prior coding experience, I relied heavily on tons of tutorials to write the code and used AI to assist when troubleshooting some bugs. I also used AI to generate some of the project's visual content and images but mainly tried to use actual human work. It's been a massive learning experience, so thanks for your time, and I hope you can enjoy my project :)
This game was created by an independent developer. Generative AI tools were used during development to assist with programming, debugging, text editing, and the initial localization of Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, English, Japanese, and Korean. All AI-assisted content was manually reviewed, edited, and approved by the developer. The game does not use generative AI to create content during gameplay, and player data is not used for AI training.
Some small props and interface icons in this game began as AI-generated meshes and textures (text-to-3D / image-to-3D), which were then reworked by hand, retopologised, re-scaled, colour-graded and assembled before shipping. All other art comes from licensed asset packs and hand kitbashing. Nothing is generated live: no AI runs during play, and no player input is sent to an AI service.
Generative AI was used to assist in the creation of some visual assets, UI elements, sound effects, and music featured in Warchaic. Software development was handled by our development team, while animations and visual effects (VFX) were either created by our team or sourced from licensed asset packages.
Generative AI was used to help write portions of this game's text content, and parts of this store page. All game code, visuals, music, and sound design were created directly by the developer without generative AI. AI was used to help debug and troubleshoot code.
Some of the placeholder unit and terrain sprites that I'm using while the game is in development were generated with the help of AI (with a lot of manual curation and editing... I promise that you will not be confronted by any noticeably ugly slop).
Initial sales will contribute toward creating hand-drawn, unique sprites for as many units as possible.
SpaceBell was Agentically Engineered! The custom engine, game loop, and the entire process to make the game is documented on the studios' X page. Far from vibed, the game has been in active dev for 2yrs.
The vast majority of Dominar Sanctum has been created and developed without generative AI. Generative AI has only been used selectively for a small number of 2D icons, slide narration and a narrative voiceover, primarily for early prototyping and development. Even those icons have been manually reworked.
These few AI-assisted assets are not representative of the game's overall art, design, programming, or development process. They may be replaced or further refined before the full release.
Generative AI tools were used during development to assist in creating some pre-generated promotional artwork and 2D art assets. No AI-generated content is created during gameplay.
Generative AI tools were used to assist with the enhancement of certain promotional images, store page artwork, and place holder UI promotional content including lighting, color grading, atmospheric effects, and visual cleanup.
The game's models, environments, gameplay systems, animations, and other in-game content are created by the developer. The game does not use live-generated AI during gameplay.
Some of this game's shipped assets were created with the assistance of generative AI and then manually curated and edited by the developers: background artwork (landscape silhouettes), the current music tracks (temporary, until our hand-crafted soundtrack is finished), and parts of the English localization. No content is generated by AI at runtime, and the game does not connect to any AI services.
Ages TD was made with the help of generative AI tools. All AI-generated content is
pre-generated during development, reviewed and edited by the developer; nothing is
generated live while you play.
- Some 3D models and their textures (enemies, towers, props) — generated with Meshy,
then edited and integrated by the developer.
- Music — generated with Suno from prompts written by the developer.
- Cutscene illustrations and store page artwork — created with AI image tools,
then edited by the developer.
- Parts of the in-game dialogue and hint texts — drafted with AI assistance and
rewritten by the developer.
There is no AI-generated voice acting in the game.
Generative AI tools were utilized for auxiliary purposes in the production of some assets. These assets were modified and supplemented by professional art personnel and were finally applied to the game.
Some visual assets and music used in this game were created with the assistance of generative AI. All AI-generated content was reviewed, if needed edited, and curated by the developer before being included in the game.
Generative AI tools were used during development to assist with the creation of pre-generated visual assets, including some game artwork and Steam store/marketing assets. All generated content is reviewed and curated before inclusion in the game or its marketing materials. The game does not generate AI content during gameplay.
AI image tools supported the creation of some 2D illustrations and promotional assets. Every asset was designed, reworked, and finished by our artists, and all writing, game design, and code are entirely human-made. Nothing in the game is AI-generated at runtime.
Some assets in Crown Cribbage were made with the help of generative AI tools:
- in-game music was generated with AI music tools
- capsule/key art
- marketing copy drafts
- assistance with programming
One point of emphasis:
The computer opponents in this game are not generative AI. They are hand-written heuristics, a fixed set of rules for discarding and pegging, tuned by
difficulty.
They see only what you see. They do not look at your hand, and nothing about them is generated while you play.
No AI content of any kind is created during a match.
Generative AI tools were used during development to assist with programming, game systems, debugging, visual assets and written content. All AI-assisted work is reviewed, tested, edited, and integrated by the developer before being included.
Generative AI was used to write, edit, and translate text on this Steam store page. It is not used during gameplay, and no AI-generated images, audio, or in-game assets are included.
The written text for Rikogol — this store page, its marketing copy and the game's in-game text — was drafted with AI assistance. No generative AI model produced any of the game's visuals or audio: everything you see in a match is drawn at runtime by our own code from plain geometric shapes, every sound effect is synthesised procedurally in code, and the store artwork comes from a deterministic drawing script. The game generates no content while you play and connects to no AI service.
Generative AI technologies were utilized during the development of this project in the following ways:
1. Visual Art: AI tools were used to assist in generating and optimizing certain visual assets (such as table backgrounds, card backs, and UI elements).
2. Translation: AI was used to assist in the multi-language localization of in-game text and rule descriptions.
This game uses an open-source language model (Qwen2.5) bundled with the game to generate real-time NPC dialogue and ambient chatter entirely offline on the player's own machine via llama.cpp. No external server, no third-party API, and no internet connection are required. Players can toggle this feature on or off. The model runs locally using the player's CPU — no data is uploaded, collected, stored, or used for training.
Portions of this game's code were written with the assistance of an AI coding tool, working under the developer's direction, with all output reviewed, tested, and integrated by hand. All artwork, animation, music, and sound effects are human-created licensed assets — no AI-generated art or audio is used. The game does not generate any content with AI at runtime; computer opponents use traditional hand-written game logic.
Some pre-rendered assets were created with the assistance of generative AI tools during development: the key art illustration, the store capsule images derived from it, and parts of the localization (translated interface text). All AI-assisted content was reviewed and curated by the developer. The game does not generate any content with AI at runtime.
Generative AI may have been used in creating pre-rendered content for this game. All such content is the result of a human-led artistic and creative process
We use generative AI to assist with writing and localizing the game's text. All art and audio are procedurally generated by our own code or sourced from CC0 libraries. No content is generated by AI in real time during gameplay.
