Studio review-bombed for 10 lines of AI-modified code that fixed a bug Unity engineers couldn't

House House, the studio behind Untitled Goose Game, is being review-bombed on Steam for disclosing that AI touched "well under 0.1%" of Big Walk's code — a chatbot helped fix a Unity bug, with the final solution being 10 heavily modified lines.

The technical backstory: every sunrise/sunset froze the game 20 seconds at 50% speed. Unity's renderer only culls shadows for distant objects in front of the camera; anything behind the player was treated as infinitely far and rendered anyway, which got brutal with a low sun. House House read Unity's source themselves, then a Unity engineer said the fix was impossible — until AI-assisted work cracked it.
