The publisher of Blue Prince has denied claims that generative AI was used in the game’s development. This follows a recent incident where Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 lost its Indie Game Awards wins after it was discovered the game included AI-generated content.
As a gamer, I’ve been following the whole debate around AI in games, and it’s been pretty wild. It really hit a nerve when Larian Studios, the team behind Baldur’s Gate 3, said they used AI during the early stages of development – a lot of fans weren’t happy about that. But things really blew up when the Indie Game Awards had to take back the wins from Clair Obscur: Expedition 33. Now, Blue Prince, this awesome puzzle rogue-like that everyone’s been raving about for 2025, is officially the winner instead. It’s sparked a huge conversation about what’s fair and ethical when it comes to using AI in game development.
Claims that Dogubomb, the creator of Blue Prince, used AI to generate content recently surfaced online. The issue gained attention when The Escapist published an article about it – though the article has since been updated. Now, the game’s publisher and developer have addressed these claims.
Blue Prince Did Not Use Generative AI During Development, Says Publisher
Just to reassure everyone: Blue Prince was made entirely by humans! Tonda Ros (@dogubomb) and his team spent eight years building and designing the game using only their own creativity and imagination, and we’re incredibly proud of what they’ve accomplished.

Raw Fury, the publisher of Blue Prince, has released a statement supporting the game and its creator, Dogubomb. They are addressing concerns that generative AI was used in the game’s development and shared details on social media.
Blue Prince was made entirely by humans, not AI. The game’s creator, Tonda Ros (Dogubomb), and his team spent eight years building it using their own creativity and imagination, and they’re very proud of the result.
The Indie Game Awards specifically prohibited the use of AI, requiring developers to confirm their games were AI-free. Claims that the game Blue Prince used AI were unfounded, as the article making those claims provided no proof. It’s likely that scrutiny of AI use in games will continue in the future, and it’s unfortunate that a well-received 2025 title like Blue Prince had to face these accusations, particularly after achieving a significant award.
There’s been some discussion about whether AI was used in the game Blue Prince. Do you think it deserved to win Best Independent Game at the Indie Game Awards? Share your thoughts in the comments here and on the official TopMob Discord server!
