Credits!
Easy right?
Welllll.....
Who gets to be in the credits?
What are their titles?
What format will the credits appear in?
Credits enter into the gamedev conversation at the perfect moment to cause problems, right in the middle of finaling. Right when you may be crunching. When emotions are at their most raw.

No feature more perfectly combines:
- thing I hate spending time on and
- thing I have spent a LOT of time on

Here are the IGDA credit guidelines:
