This game uses generative AI tools during development to assist with the following content: text translation, sound effects, and background artwork assets
Some content in PRE-ECHO was created with the help of generative AI tools during development and was then integrated, adjusted and art-directed by the developer:
- 3D models: the character and creature models, and many prop and vehicle models, were generated with Tripo from original reference images made for this project, then rigged, adjusted and textured in Blender and Unreal Engine.
- 2D art: some textures and interface images (such as the main-menu background, the workshop investigation board, journal and map paper, and inventory icons) were generated with image-generation tools from original prompts.
- Voices: all spoken lines are synthesized with the open-source Kokoro text-to-speech model using generic voices. No real person's voice was recorded or cloned.
- Text: the script, in-game text and English/Spanish localization were written with an AI assistant under the developer's direction.
- Store art: the store and library artwork was generated with AI image tools from the project's own character and creature references, then retouched by the developer. The logo was made without AI. The screenshots are unedited captures of the game.
No content is generated by AI while the game is running.
Some voice lines (the narrator, phone messages and townspeople), some sound effects and the menu music were created with generative AI text-to-speech and audio tools (ElevenLabs) and edited by the developer. All visual art, 3D, animation, level design and code were made by the developer. No AI content is generated during gameplay.
The original 100 000+ word story was written by me in German. I used the AI ChatGPT to help me with localising that into English. This translation was prepared, guided and proof-read by me, to ensure that certain fantastic elements of the story and the world within the game carried over into English. Despite that, much of the actual translating was done by the AI.
AI tools were used in a limited capacity for a few prop images such as the photographs in the main house, and translation of some Javanese writings. All AI-assisted content was carefully reviewed and approved by humans to ensure it was appropriate and respectful, the final product is a reflection of our own cultural identity and creativity.
Generative AI was used to assist with creating selected promotional artwork and drafting or editing some written marketing content for the Steam store page. No generative AI is used during gameplay.
Generative AI tools were used during development to create visual references and assist with the creation of some 3D assets. AI-generated outputs used as source material were further edited, refined, or integrated by the developer before inclusion in the game. Generative AI may also be used to create or assist with some music, sound, and localization assets, with outputs reviewed and edited before inclusion. No generative AI is used at runtime.
AI-assisted tools were used during development to create some visual assets, including some artwork. These assets are included as pre-generated game content.
Some visual and audio assets were generated with AI tools during development and edited for use in Dead Last. No AI content is generated during gameplay.
This game utilizes pre-rendered content assisted by generative AI tools exclusively for a few specific background songs, character voice acting, and minor conceptual art references.
The ambient sound design, audio effects, and liminal soundscapes were crafted by human artists. Certain 3D models and environmental props were acquired under license from creators on the Unreal Engine Marketplace. All narrative writing, game design, level composition, programming, story, and creative direction are original works created and directed entirely by the author.
Generative AI tools were used during development to assist in creating some artwork, music, sound effects, and promotional materials, and in drafting and translating text. These materials are prepared before release. The game does not generate AI content during gameplay or connect to external AI services.
AI-Generated Content Disclosure – CONJURARIUN
CONJURARIUN uses AI-generated content in certain elements of the game. AI-generated images were used for some visual assets, including artwork featured in the game. Additionally, AI-generated music was used in the main menu.
All AI-generated content was reviewed, selected, and integrated by the development team as part of the game's creative process. The gameplay, programming, mechanics, and overall game development were created and implemented by the developer.
We don’t particularly like using AI.
Unfortunately, we are a small indie studio made of programmers and designers who are currently somewhere between “making a game” and “having existential crises”.
So, for now, we use AI to help us with some parts of our daily work and to bring some of our music, ideas, and inspirations to life.
But don’t worry, we haven’t handed over the steering wheel to the robots just yet.
Our project, its identity, and its originality are still created and directed by us. AI is simply one of the tools helping us survive the development process while our budget is busy pretending it doesn’t exist.
As soon as we have the resources to replace AI with our own human made work, we absolutely intend to do so.
Until then, we’re just a bunch of indie developers trying to make something cool before our refrigerators become purely decorative objects.
Pre-generated AI tools were used to create selected voice-over performances and selected promotional artwork. All AI-assisted materials are reviewed, edited, and finalized by the development team before use. The game does not generate AI content during gameplay.
Stay With Me contains a limited amount of pre-generated content created with the assistance of generative AI.
Some visual assets, the loading screen artwork, and some voice lines for the characters Margaret and the child were created using AI tools.

All AI content is pre-generated during development. The game does not generate content using AI while running, and there is no live AI generation.
Some artwork for the game or its store materials includes minor AI-assisted edits. This content is pre-generated. The game does not generate AI content during gameplay and does not connect to external AI services.
Some 3D models in this game, with their textures, were generated with an AI 3D-modeling tool from our own designs and then rigged and edited for the game: the Harvester, the Halloway family, the two playable co-op characters, the scarecrows and the wax effigy.
Some assets (voiceovers, wall paintings, icons) are currently generated using AI and are planned to be replaced with artist-created assets in future updates.
Parts of Howling Woods were made with generative AI during development: its music and sound effects, its interface icons and store art, some of its set-piece models, and parts of its code. All of it was reviewed and reworked by hand, and nothing is generated while you play.

Generative AI was used as an assistant when writing the text of this store page and of the game, and to translate it into 12 languages; all of it was reviewed and edited by the developer. One song on the car radio ("Broken Hearts and Blue Moons", licensed from Pixabay) was produced by its author with generative AI. No content is generated while you play.
