Meddelelse om AI-genereret indhold

Udviklerne beskriver spillets brug af AI-genereret indhold sådan her:

■In this work, AI-generated images are primarily used for character design and as reference sketches for the following characters:

Deeba
Buddy
City Official
Joslinbell’s wheelchair
The procedure is as follows:

Based on detailed world-building settings, prompts are created and input into Dall-E 3 to generate images multiple times.
A single output image—or a combination of several output images—is then used as a reference sketch to create pixel art.
In addition, except for some parts, the map background images are also generated by creating prompts from the world-building settings and inputting them into Dall-E 3. The resulting images are then used as reference sketches to produce pixel art.

By following this method, while we leverage AI-generated images, the final designs are all completed as pixel art by human hands.

■The English version is generated using machine translation.
