Catly was one of the stranger announcements at The Game Awards last week, and has since been put under the microscope with accusations of AI, blockchain, and NFTs being used. However, developer SuperAuthenti has now denied the use of this tech.

According to SuperAuthenti, no generative AI was used for either the announcement or the game. A PR rep told IGN that the team was “very surprised by such speculations.” Also stated: “We do not think there are any existing AI tools that can produce a video like that. Industry experts have echoed this opinion.” IGN was able to see a version of the trailer showing in-progress shots interspersed alongside the final version, which seemingly confirms no AI was used.
