Generative AI tools were used during development to assist with programming, debugging, and selected visual and marketing assets. All AI-assisted code and content were reviewed, tested, and edited by the developer. No content is generated during gameplay.

Made by one person. Written, directed and built by me, with generative AI used as a supplementary tool for some of the game's assets, all of it reviewed and refined by hand.

Some visual assets and promotional artwork used in DuoControl were created or assisted using generative AI and were further refined by our development team. No generative AI is used during gameplay, and players cannot generate AI content within the game.

Generative tools were used during development to assist in creating selected pre-generated visual assets.All AI-assisted content was reviewed, edited, and integrated by the developer.

Some of the visuals on our store page and some of the 2D illustrations in our game were created with the help of AI-powered tools.

Pre-rendered content: 2D artwork (character sprites, backgrounds, marketing art) and music were created with the assistance of generative AI tools, then manually curated, edited and composited by the developer. The game does not generate any content at runtime (no live AI).

Portions of this game's 2D artwork — character and enemy sprites, item and orb illustrations, backgrounds, UI decoration, and HUD icons — were created with the assistance of image-generation AI (GPT-image-2), working from the developer's own compositions, reference art, and prompts. Every AI-assisted image was individually selected, post-processed, and reviewed by the developer, and is tracked in an internal asset ledger. Store capsule artwork was produced the same way. Store screenshots are unedited captures of actual gameplay. Visual effects are generated procedurally by the developer's own code without AI. The game contains no AI-generated audio or music. Some in-game text was drafted with AI assistance and edited by the developer.

Generative AI tools were used to assist in creating and refining pre-generated 2D visual assets, promotional/store graphics, and some text and localization content. All outputs were reviewed and curated by the developer. The game does not generate AI content at runtime and does not send player input to an AI service.

Generative AI was used strictly for debugging and optimization. No AI was used to generate art, music, etc.

Bonehaven is developed by a solo creator. To bring the game world to life, generative AI tools (such as MeshyAI and AI sound generators) were used to assist in creating select 3D assets and sound effects, alongside royalty-free commercial audio and Unity Asset Store resources. All core gameplay, code, and systems were created directly by the developer.
