AI Generated Content Disclosure

The developers describe how their game uses AI Generated Content like this:

Starbrew Station uses AI tools during development to assist with creating game assets and code:

Claude AI: Used to generate code snippets and assist with programming tasks that are then reviewed, modified, and integrated into the game through our VSCode development workflow.
Imagen: Generates initial artwork and visual concepts that our team then refines and edits in Paint.NET and Aseprite before final integration into the game.
ElevenLabs: Creates sound effects and audio content that undergoes further processing and refinement before being added to the game.

All AI-generated content goes through human review and modification in our development pipeline. We use these tools as assistants in our creative process where the AI outputs are starting points that our team refines, edits, and integrates using traditional tools like Paint.NET and VSCode. This ensures quality control and that all final content meets our creative vision and technical standards.
