Parts of this game's content were created with generative AI tools:
- 3D models and their textures (towers, enemies, terrain and scenery props) were generated with Meshy AI, then hand-adjusted and assembled by the developer.
- The English localization was AI-translated from the original Chinese text and then reviewed by the developer.
- Some in-game flavor text (event, relic and achievement descriptions) was drafted with an AI writing assistant.
- Some store page and marketing artwork was produced with AI image tools.
All of this content is generated ahead of time and ships as fixed assets. The game does not generate any content live during play and does not connect to any AI service at runtime. Sound effects and music are procedurally synthesized by our own scripts and are not AI-generated.
As a solo developer, AI has been a big help in making the development of this game more efficient by assisting in, but not be the sole performer of: testing, performing repetitive and some programming tasks, brainstorming and discussions, translations and some design.
Some in-game text (such as the messages in bottles) and store page copy were written with the assistance of AI tools. All content has been reviewed and edited by the developer.
Some art, music and sound effects were created with the assistance of generative AI tools, under the creative direction of the developer. All AI-assisted content was reviewed and curated before inclusion. The game does not use AI to generate content during gameplay.
CrystalCanvas uses generative AI in parts of its development process.
For the sound effects played when placing voxels, we aimed to create sounds that remain pleasant and unobtrusive even during extended play sessions. After exploring a variety of sound assets and recordings, we ultimately used generative AI as part of the sound design process to achieve the desired result.
Generative AI is also used as a development aid through Claude Code for generating and assisting with parts of the code related to voxel space management and rendering.
Generative AI is not used to generate the voxel artwork or gameplay content itself.
During development, we used Google Gemini AI to assist in generating narrative elements, such as item descriptions and quest lore. While the core story and world-building were meticulously designed by our human team, AI helped us expand the depth and variety of in-game text. All AI-assisted content has been thoroughly reviewed and edited by our developers to ensure quality and consistency.
Some pre-generated 2D illustrations (menu backgrounds, mode card images, app icon, and store capsule artwork) were created with AI image generation tools and reviewed by a human. The game itself contains no live-generated AI content — all gameplay, 3D models, audio, and code are human-made.
Voxel Siege uses generative AI for some pre-generated content, all reviewed by the developer before inclusion. Specifically: some in-game material/block textures were created with AI image tools; the music and sound effects were created with AI audio-generation tools; the store page description and some marketing copy were drafted with AI assistance; and some level/fortress layouts were generated with AI-assisted tooling. All AI-generated content was created during development (not live or at runtime), was reviewed by the developer, and does not incorporate third-party intellectual property. The game does not generate any AI content live during gameplay.
Some visual assets (a portion of skill icons and the boss health-bar UI element) and background music tracks were created with the assistance of AI generation tools.
Some of the art in this game was made with the help of generative AI. The voxel character portraits were generated from written prompts using an AI image generator, then cut out, colour-corrected, posed and animated by hand by the developer. The store page capsules and the achievement icons are composed from that same character art. Parts of the store page text, and the game's translations into its eight supported languages, were produced with AI assistance and reviewed by the developer.
No generative AI runs while you play — nothing is generated in real time. The patrons' behaviour is ordinary game AI: hand-written rules and probability tables. The music and every sound effect are not AI-generated; they are synthesised procedurally.
Generative AI tools were used during development to assist in the creation of some 3D assets. All AI-assisted content was reviewed, edited, and integrated by the developer before being included in the game.
Tower Craft was developed with AI-assisted tools. All 3D models, animations and sound effects are procedurally generated by code that was written with AI assistance; the interface translations for the game's 14 languages were produced with AI assistance and reviewed by the developer. Store page text and marketing materials were also created with AI assistance. The game does not generate any content with AI at runtime — every battle plays out through deterministic, hand-tuned game logic.
Generative AI was used in the following ways:
• The title logo on our store capsule images was created with an AI image
tool. Everything else in those images is real footage from the running game.
• The trailer narration was written with AI assistance and voiced using
ElevenLabs text-to-speech.
• Some in-game text event descriptions, help and interface copy was
written with AI assistance and edited by hand.
The game itself is not AI-generated. The world simulation, the voxel terrain
and its creatures, and all in-game art are hand-built. Sound effects and music
are licensed from stock audio libraries. Nothing is generated while you play.
Some of the assets in this game were created with the help of generative AI tools: part of the background music and sound effects, some of the 2D images and textures used in the game and on the store page, some of the 3D models, and part of the source code. Every AI-assisted asset was reviewed and adjusted by the developer before it was included in the game, and we do not knowingly use material that infringes the rights of third parties. This game does not generate any content with AI while it is running; NPC dialogue is randomly selected from text written in advance by the developer.
The game's music was generated using an AI tool (Suno), then selected and mixed by me. Everything else — 3D models, textures, animations, sound effects, text and code is handmade. My goal is to replace it with original compositions from a human artist as soon as sales allow.
I have used generative AI for some parts or sections of the trailer creation and some voices or images used inside the game itself. All the code and inner workings of the game have been created by a person.
Generative AI tools were used to produce the game's source code and assist with music, localisation, store artwork, and some in-game text. The developer created the original concept, defined the intended gameplay and voxel-based presentation, and continuously reviewed, tested, corrected, refined, and approved the implementation. The game does not generate AI content during gameplay.
Generative AI was used during development to create some pre-generated graphical content. This includes several user interface icons used in the game and the hero banner displayed on the Steam store page. The game does not generate any content using AI during runtime.
Generative artificial intelligence was used during the process of creating the game's graphical elements. It was used to generate concepts and 2D graphics, which were then further manually edited and adapted to the needs of the project. The modified graphics were used as backgrounds in the game's main menu.
AI has been used in some store materials, such as audio content. However, the majority of the game’s content is not AI-generated, particularly the main characters, maps, and weapons.
Generative AI was used during the development process to assist with code optimization, refactoring, and text translation. None of the AI-generated content is generated in real-time or active during live gameplay.
Generative AI was used only to assist with localization/translation partially. All localized text was reviewed and edited before release. No AI-generated content was used otherwise.
This game is developed by a solo developer. To ship a project of this scope in a reasonable timeframe, some assets are created with the help of generative AI tools. This includes parts of the user interface, certain icons, and the game logo. All core gameplay, code, systems, and world generation are built by hand. AI is used only as a support tool for visual assets, and all generated content is reviewed and edited before use.
I use AI-generated content—such as game illustrations—as a basis for refinement or as a reference.
I also use AI to write code, or refer to the code it generates.
Some of the background images and environmental artwork in this game were created with the assistance of generative AI tools. All generated images were subsequently edited, adjusted, and integrated manually to match the game's post-apocalyptic aesthetic.
VoxelForge includes local generative AI features for user-assisted 3D and voxel asset creation.
Users can provide their own source images and use the application to generate 3D models, voxel assets, meshes, textures, and related production assets. This generation runs locally on the user’s computer using model files bundled with the application.
VoxelForge does not connect to an external AI service during normal use. It does not require a Hugging Face account, API key, cloud generation service, or external server connection at runtime. User input images and generated outputs are not uploaded to our servers.
The AI features are intended as creative tools for asset production. Users are responsible for ensuring that they have the necessary rights to any images or source material they import, and for reviewing generated outputs before using or distributing them.
