DROD: King Dugan's Dungeon

To explain the credits properly, I have to point out that DROD:KDD is built off of Caravel DROD, released in 2002, DROD: Architects' Edition, released in 2003, and the DROD: Journey to Rooted Hold game engine, released in 2005. Certain contributions made in these previous releases carry over to this one (see links).

DROD: Journey to Rooted Hold Credits (2005)


To explain the credits properly, I have to point out that all of the DROD games (except the first) are built with code, graphics, and other assets from their predecessors. Certain contributions made in these previous releases carry over to later releases. The credits for each release tend not to mention all the work put in by people earlier, so the proper way to read these credits is to start from the very first release at the bottom of this page and work your way up.
