How it's made
The game's dialogue and other in-game text were drafted with an AI assistant (Claude) and reviewed line by line by the developer. Its characters, tiles and backgrounds are rendered from 3D models and drawing scripts written with the same assistant; no image-generation models are used. Its music and sound effects were written by the same assistant, as notes and synthesis programs played by a synthesizer written for the game, and each was kept or sent back by the developer by ear; no audio-generation models and no AI voices are used.
The studio's AI Use Disclaimer says who does what, what is never used and how the work is checked.
