How AI is used
Human artists set the visual guide and created all concept art that AI assisted tools then compiled 1st pass geometry on 3D models. Human artists then refine the model sculptures to final standards. Human composer created musical arrangements using sampled and/or AI synthetized instrumentation. Some UI art was acquired from Human artists in external library offerings. No art or music was generated from a Gen AI text prompt.
The developer's own words, from Steam.
About DIE as HEROES
Die as Heroes is a tabletop dark fantasy game inspired by games like Dungeons & Dragons and other tabletop games like HeroQuest or Journeys in the Dark in a video game format. Ideal pizza night fun!
It is designed to allow you to play solo or with friends, with a single character up to a full party of 4, or mix and match (2 players each control 2 characters, etc)
Die as Heroes ships with several adventures that provide several hours of fun. However, the fun doesn't end when players complete the iniitial campaign.
Die as Heroes comes with a robust editor, hooked into steamworks that allows players to create and share their own stories and adventures with the world. Feel free to create short adventures, stand alone stories or sweeping massive multi-adventure storyline campaigns!
