'We support the work of those who are trying to limit the harm generative AI is doing to videogames and our world, and apologise that Big Walk’s LLM usage may not meet their standards'
Edit: I don’t understand why people downvote a question. At the time I couldn’t find the rules searching the web, as no news article linked to it. So I asked here…
I think you only require disclosure if you include AI generated assets. So AI generated models, sound, music. But if you basically just googling stuff it’s fine. I can’t see how you could enforce any other interpretation.
Generated code needs to be disclosed too, not just assets. And they have some form of generated code. And this is giving them the benefit of doubt, as in, there is nothing else than what they explain. I think they should have disclosed what they explained.
According to a few people in here who actually have access to the developer console no code isn’t included in the disclosure requirements. It’s only generated assets.
This is the news from 2024, which I found too. I was looking for the actual rules a developer has to agree to. And the users need to know too, because we can report. Any news article talking about this has no link. It’s frustrating.
Quite frankly, I don’t think it’s on us. The devs have their forms to fill out, and they’ve disclosed this publicly of their own choice. If Valve found that usage to be in violation of their own policies, they’ve already got repercussions for this in place that House House would not want to be subject to.
Other developer information is online available for everyone too. So this is usually how Valve operates. I think I found it: https://partner.steamgames.com/doc/gettingstarted/contentsurvey The part about the Ai disclosure is exactly the same as in the news article. I was just wondering if there is more to it. So its only about generative content then.
Why does this look like an asset flip? The character models themselves are just a bunch of basic shapes stuck together and the environment looks like it must’ve been off an asset store.
This from the studio that brought us untitled goose game, a beautifully styled game?
They don’t have an Ai disclosure on the Steam page: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1478500/Big_Walk/ Isn’t this against Steams rules?

No, as per the article, the way they used AI does not require disclosure on the Steam page.
Where can I find the rules for Ai disclosure on Steam? I couldn’t find it.
It seems to mostly be in the developer portal, but here’s the news post about it.
