Ebbtide AI Disclosure on Steam: What ProjectAlive Says

Ebbtide, the zombie survival RTS by ProjectAlive, carries a Generative AI use disclosure on its Steam store page as of 2026-10-22. This unofficial fan wiki page does not speak for the developer; it quotes and summarizes only what Steam and ProjectAlive have published, with links below.

For release status and store milestones, see Ebbtide release date. For a one-line AI answer inside the broader Q&A set, see the Ebbtide FAQ. The 2026-10-21 wishlist announcement also touched on AI use and contributor plans.

What does the Steam store page disclose?

On the Ebbtide Steam store page (app 4915700), the section titled AI Generated Content Disclosure includes the following text (quoted verbatim from the store page as observed 2026-10-22):

Generative AI was used during development to create the soundtrack, some prerecorded voices, sound effects, ambient audio and event illustrations, and to create or refine selected 3D models. AI-assisted tools were also used to translate in-game text. All AI-generated content was reviewed and edited by the developer before inclusion. The game does not generate content with AI during gameplay.

What did the 2026-10-21 Steam announcement add?

On 2026-10-21 (09:42 UTC), ProjectAlive posted the Steam community announcement “15,000 wishlists. Thank you!” (author line Son on the news feed). In the “AI use and the work ahead” portion, the developer wrote that “As mentioned on the Steam page…” and restated the same scope as the store disclosure above.

The announcement also stated that voice work and translation still need improvement, that the developer plans to re-record voices and redo localization with community contributors, and that they would like to work with musicians on new soundtrack material when possible. It invited voice and translation contributors via the official Discord. Those lines are paraphrased from the announcement text; the store quote above remains the verbatim baseline.

Read the announcement on Steam news for app 4915700. Context for the same week: Steam page live and 15,000 wishlists and the development timeline.

How does this relate to mature content on Steam?

Separate from the AI block, the Steam mature content description for Ebbtide (observed 2026-10-22) lists frequent combat violence, blood, burning characters, corpses, soldiers and civilians who can be killed or infected, and a quarantine screening step where the player can order execution of civilians suspected of infection. That text is content rating / player-facing warning copy, not an AI disclosure. Mechanic details belong on the gameplay overview when sourced from About This Game and developer posts.

How to check the disclosure yourself

1. Open the Ebbtide Steam store page while signed in or out (the disclosure is public store text).
2. Scroll the store page until you reach AI Generated Content Disclosure (the same heading quoted above).
3. Compare the paragraph to this page’s blockquote; if Steam edits the text, treat the live store page as current and note the date you checked.
4. For developer commentary that references the same scope, open Steam news for app 4915700 and read the 2026-10-21 announcement section on AI use and contributor plans.
