Space Travelers uses generative AI only as a writing aid during development.The game's text content (interface text, event and log lines) and itslocalization into the 14 supported interface languages were produced withthe assistance of large language models, directed and reviewed by thedeveloper. Parts of this store page were drafted the same way.No AI-generated images, audio or video are used: all artwork, animationand sound in the game are produced by hand-written procedural code. Thegame does not generate any content with AI while you play, and it neverconnects to an external AI service.

The Offering is an incremental game where you grab creatures to collect offerings, buy upgrades and defend your shrine at night. Stack boons, forge weapons, catch goblins and ascend through worlds!
The Offering is made by one person working with AI, and I'd rather you know exactly how before you decide to buy it.AI did most of the making. It wrote the bulk of the code, built the creatures in Blender reconstructed into 3D from AI-generated concept art, painted much of the interface and card art, generated the music, and machine-translated the game into its 28 other languages. Sound effects come from free sound libraries.I did the deciding. Every system, card and number was designed and argued over by me, then thrown out and rebuilt when it didn't feel right, which happened a lot. The balance comes from my own playthroughs plus a pile of simulation runs, and I decide what stays.Nothing is generated while you play. The game runs no AI model, needs no account or subscription, and never talks to an AI service.If AI-made content is a dealbreaker for you, this game isn't for you, and that's a fair call to make.

Build a robot from real parts — solenoids, gears, connecting rods — wire it up, and figure out why it won't turn yet. Nothing here is faked: the current is really computed, and every breakdown has a cause you can find.
Some marketing assets on the store page (capsules, logo) were produced with a generative AI tool, based on screenshots and 3D renders from the game itself.Part of the in-game text (encyclopaedia entries and mission briefings) was drafted with the assistance of a large language model, then reviewed and edited by the developer.The 3D parts, textures and the simulation itself are authored. Nothing is generated while the game is running.
