Most of battle sounds come are authored but some voiceover is AI. I will provide option to disable all AI voices.
If game budged grows i will reinvest it to get it replaced and sounds recorded by actual people.
Parts this game's visual assets — including concept art, textures, and character portraits — were pre-rendered with generative AI tools during development, then reviewed and hand-integrated by the developer. Store and marketing images were produced the same way. No content is generated by in real time while you play.
This game includes some static images and audio materials that were pre-generated by AI tools during the development stage and have been incorporated into the game. They were not generated in real time.

In general, the developer uses AI to create like a cubes; ultimately, they decide where to place each cube to build a castle—or, in this case, the video game itself.
Hi everyone. I want to be open about how this game was made and why generative AI was used.
Aika Was Supposed to Die began as a story that I wrote and developed over more than two years. The world, characters, dialogue, themes, and narrative direction were all written by me. I cared deeply about this story, and eventually I felt that a visual novel would be the best way to bring it to life.
As an independent developer working with a limited budget, hiring a full team of artists is not financially possible for me right now. I greatly value human-made art and the work of professional artists. I am also a 3D artist who works with Unreal Engine, so this is something I genuinely care about.
Rather than leave the story untold, I chose to use generative AI as part of the visual production process. The game’s images and video assets were created with the assistance of generative AI tools. However, I did not want that to become an excuse for delivering something careless or low-quality. In fact, having access to these tools encouraged me to be as ambitious as possible with the project.
I created and refined a large number of images and animated sequences to give the game a richer and more cinematic presentation. Every asset was carefully directed, selected, edited, revised, and manually integrated into the story, with the goal of providing players with a cohesive, polished, and emotionally engaging experience.
The writing, narrative design, scene direction, timing, editing, and final creative decisions were all handled by humans. Generative AI was used as a production tool, not as a replacement for authorship, creative direction, or care. No AI content is generated during gameplay.
If the game becomes successful enough to support a larger production, I would love to work with professional artists on future chapters. Until then, this approach has allowed me to share a story that means a great deal to me while doing everything within my reach to make the final experience cohesive, personal, and emotionally meaningful.
Thank you for giving this story a chance.
We use AI tools as part of our developer workflow, in some cases for generative textures, 2D or 3D placeholders, in other cases for actual designs to be used in the game, this can also be a mix of both.
We used an AI diffusion tool in Krita to help create the background for the small capsule shown in search results. Our artist then worked over it with several extra layers, a bit like matte painting. For now, it's a placeholder until our artist finishes the hand-painted version of the small capsule.
The logo and the other capsule images were already hand-painted by our artist. The in-game portraits were also drawn by another artist on our team.
We have a devlog on our website about how we made the capsule artwork and hero portraits, and we'll share the full process on the Steam Community soon too.
The playtest build also includes a few placeholder assets made with AI tools in Krita. Our new UI artist is working on a new UI, so we'll be replacing those placeholders soon. As mentioned above, the hero portraits are also hand-drawn by our artist.
AI-assistive tools were used for development support, including prototyping, coding, testing, documentation, and workflows; all player-facing creative content such as Art, UI, VFX, music, voice acting, and marketing materials was created by human developers and artists.
All pre-rendered visual artwork was created using generative AI under developer direction. This includes environment backgrounds, interface and menu artwork, branding, icons, and promotional/title-card images.
During the development of *A Bad Dream: Trypophobia*, generative AI was used as a supporting tool to create and refine certain textures, 3D models, and visual elements, as well as to assist in programming specific systems. All content was manually reviewed, edited, configured, and integrated by Big Mount Interactive. The game does not generate content via AI during gameplay, nor does it connect to external AI services.
Generative AI tools were used during development to assist with creating promotional images for the Steam store page, early concept art, and voiceovers for character dialogues. No AI content is generated in real-time during gameplay. All in-game models, code, and environments were manually created, processed, and integrated by the developer.
Lateral Crawl will launch in Early Access. The Early Access build will contain some AI-generated and developer-edited sound effects, which are planned to be replaced before the 1.0 release.
Generative AI tools were used during development of this game.
2D art, including character illustrations and in-game documents and photographs, was created with image generation tools, then edited and composed by hand.
Some 3D props and environment models were created with a model generation service, then adjusted for the game.
Background music was created with a music generation service. Sound effects are not generated; they are openly licensed recordings that we processed ourselves.
AI coding tools assisted with writing and reviewing code. All final decisions and edits are made by the developer.
Every generated asset was selected and reworked by a person before it went into the game.
Generative AI was used during development to assist with some pre-generated visual assets, including selected 3D models, textures, and animations. All such content is reviewed and edited by the development team. No generative AI runs during gameplay, and no player input is sent to an AI service.
AI tools were used in a limited way during development to assist with certain aspects of the game's creation. AI was mainly used for occasional assistance and brainstorming, while the majority of the game's design, development, artwork, and content were created and directed by the developer.
Some pre-generated visual assets used in Roulettegeddon, including portions of promotional artwork and certain in-game visual elements, were created or refined with the assistance of generative AI. The game's gameplay, mechanics, and player progression do not rely on AI-generated content during play.
Generative AI was used to create selected store and library artwork, music, and sound-effect source material. The outputs were curated and edited by the developer before inclusion. No generative AI runs during gameplay, and players cannot generate AI content.
Our work incorporates commissioned artwork, licensed and publicly available assets, and AI-generated content. Regardless of the source materials used, the final product is the creative expression of our development team.
This game includes AI-generated voice performances for certain characters. Players have the option to disable AI-generated voices in the game settings. During development, AI-assisted tools were also used as part of the concept and reference creation process for some visual assets. Final in-game artwork has been substantially modified or created by the development team and is not presented as raw AI-generated content.
Generative AI tools were used during development to assist in creating and refining some pre-generated 2D artwork and Steam store marketing assets. All AI-assisted content was reviewed and edited by the development team. The game does not generate AI content during gameplay.
We use generative AI across all disciplines of game development with heavy amounts of human editing. That involves audio and visual art. We use it as a productivity tool so we can achieve a higher level of quality, faster, than we would have been able to.
We use AI to generate content for the game such as text descriptions, some images like npc portraits and ware items and to generate some stories to create immersion in the game.
We also generate some voicing for dialogs using licensed voices.
We also generate some other sounds such as sound effects (wind, sea waves)
All content text, images, voices or sounds are reviewed manually by a human to verify the content and licensing aspects.
The game's core visual presentation is built around human-created playable character sprite sheets and map artwork, while the level layouts and game design are created by the developer. Generative AI was used for selected pre-generated audio, localization, and supporting visual content such as the logo and key art. No generative AI content is generated during gameplay.
The visual assets in the game are generated using AI, including UI elements, map backgrounds, equipment icons, in-game items, and character animations.
The programming code of the game is generated using AI.
