For transparency yes! The art is AI generated.
I made the game alone which takes time and different skillsets and since not an artist, so I use AI tools.
If I want to implement non AI art I would need to either:
As an artist, I'm very disappointed, I understand these tools are easy to use but they're built on theft and actively hurt artists.
You're also wanting to get into, or are interested in game design, a field that employs many artists.
I'm not saying you're a bad person, I just hate these tools with a passion and you should realise you're hurting artists that both work in the industry you have an interest in and aspiring artists wanting to break out into the games industry.
If you don't have access to drawing your own art or an artists, I would suggest trying to make a different game rather than a VN that's built mainly on art.
There's a discord community, I'm a part of it, it's called Game Dev Network.
It's very popular, I encourage you, join, there's a section for people to collab on game jams or games in general, post there, see if you can link up with some artists.
