However the game does use Artificial Intelligence and in compliance with Steam’s policies it lists its usage as follows:

Programming: All core game logic and mechanics were manually coded by the developer. AI tools were partially utilized only in the later stages of development to assist with network infrastructure and CPU opponent processing.

Graphic Assets: All characters and primary combat environments were created manually. Generative AI was used exclusively for distant background scenery to add environmental depth without affecting the main visual assets.
