AI Generated Content Disclosure
The developer filed this on the Steam store page. It is not a guess by active.games.
This game uses generative AI tools during development for selected visual, audio, and programming-related tasks. 【AI-assisted content and development】 • Visual assets: Some in-game visuals, including ship sprites, scenario artwork, terrain textures, UI illustrations, and other decorative assets, were created with generative AI image tools, then selected, edited, modified, and integrated by the developer. • Audio assets: Some background and combat music tracks were created with AI music generation tools, then edited, mastered, and loudness-normalized for in-game use. • Programming assistance: AI coding tools are used to assist with code generation, implementation, debugging, and development. Game systems, mechanics, simulation rules, balance, and overall technical design are directed and determined by the developer. 【Runtime and game content】 • No generative AI operates during gameplay or at runtime. All required assets and game logic are included with the game and run locally. • Scenario design, gameplay rules, ship statistics, historical information, and overall game design are researched, designed, reviewed, and integrated by the developer. All AI-assisted assets and generated code are reviewed, tested, and integrated by the developer before being included in the released game.
