AI Generated Content Disclosure
The developer filed this on the Steam store page. It is not a guess by active.games.
Used AI in creating SOME of the cards art. To be completely transparent, I usually set up a scene in unreal engine or sketch some crude representation then run that image through a diffusion model to stylize it until I get something close to what I want. Then I'll clean it up the best I can, adding/removing fingers or limps.
