AI Usage Disclosure
Live-generated: Pixie's chat feature generates the pet's replies with a language model that ships inside the product and runs entirely on the player's own computer. There is no third-party AI service, no API key and no account of any kind; the feature makes no network requests at all and works with the machine fully offline. The model is Gemma 4 E2B, licensed under the Apache License 2.0 and redistributed with the notices required by that license. Pre-generated: written text in the product and on this store page — including the interface strings and their translations into the supported languages — was produced with the help of an AI writing assistant. All art, animation and characters are hand-made: every sprite is drawn at runtime by a parametric pixel renderer written for this project, with no generative AI involved at any stage. Camera and microphone input are processed entirely on-device (MediaPipe) and are never sent to any server.

Disclosure History
Captured versions of the developer’s statement. This record can miss changes between checks and does not establish when AI use began.
Pixie's optional chat feature sends the player's typed messages to a third-party AI service (Google Gemini, DeepSeek, OpenRouter or a custom OpenAI-compatible endpoint) using the player's OWN API key, and displays the AI-generated text replies in-game. This is the only AI-generated content in the product; it is generated live at runtime and is subject to the chosen provider's safety systems. All art, animation, characters and code are hand-made without generative AI. Camera and microphone input are processed entirely on-device (MediaPipe) and are never sent to any server.
