Discover how over 120 games out of 338 new releases on Steam last week disclosed AI-generated content, raising questions about quality, pricing, and the future of game development. Titles like Android Who Dreams of Stars and Kryonull rely heavily on AI for everything from artwork to narration. This surge in AI-generated games is transforming Steam's landscape, with some developers charging hefty prices for these titles.
Kryonull, a sci-fi visual novel with an intriguing premise about a manned mission to Europa, falls short due to its extensive use of AI-generated assets and an exorbitant $100 price tag. Despite its interesting core idea and manually crafted script, the game's value is severely undermined by its lack of effort in other areas. For a similar experience with actual craftsmanship, consider South Scrimshaw Part One (free) or Water Womb World ($2).
