Terran Dawn

Terran Dawn is a solo-developed game, and generative AI tools were used during its production. Everything AI-assisted is created ahead of time and shipped as fixed files inside the build: the game generates nothing while you play, contacts no AI service at runtime, and sends no player data anywhere. Where these tools were used: - 3D assets: ship, station and building meshes were produced with AI text-to-3D generation, then rescaled, re-oriented, re-textured and hand-corrected to fit the engine. - 2D art and textures: interface illustrations, encyclopedia art and some surface textures were generated from hand-written prompts and edited afterwards. - Sound effects: a portion of the weapon, interface and explosion sounds were generated with AI audio tools, then trimmed and mixed by hand. - Music: the soundtrack was created with AI music generation. - Voice-over: mission briefings and in-mission radio lines are AI text-to-speech, performed from scripts written by the developer. - Video transmissions: the in-game character broadcasts use a licensed synthetic presenter and synthetic voice to deliver dialogue written by the developer. - Translation: the game's text was translated into its supported languages with the help of an AI language model. - Some of the game's source code was written with AI coding assistants. The game's design, story, missions, rules and balance are written by the developer. No generative AI runs while the game is playing.
