Small Disclaimer!!!1:
I've seen some people concerned about the use of AI in this game, so I thought I would clarify its usage in this game upfront. This game uses exactly one AI generated image towards the end of the game. It was made back in 2021 when many artist (such as myself) were much less critical of image generation models due to the fact they were mostly generating abstract nonsense imagery. It's the only time I've ever used something like that in an art project, and it's not something I ever want to do again.
Welcome to the Lake
