AI Generated Content Disclosure
The developer filed this on the Steam store page. It is not a guess by active.games.
As a solo developer working on IDLEPUNK - Ghost Link, I unfortunately don't have the budget to hire a full team of artists, musicians, and other creators. Because of that, some of the game's media is created using a combination of AI-generated material and my own editing, design, and manual work. I've done my best to use the tools available to me to create a consistent world and atmosphere that fits New Haven and the vision I have for IDLEPUNK - Ghost Link. AI-generated material is not simply dropped into the game untouched; I edit, modify, combine, and adapt assets where necessary to better fit the game's style and presentation. For now, I'm not accepting any money or donations for the project either. IDLEPUNK - Ghost Link is currently a passion project first and foremost, and I want to focus on developing it and improving the game without asking players for financial support. If and when the game eventually leaves Early Access, I may introduce ways for people who enjoy the game to support its continued development and future content.
