A '''game developer''' is a person or business involved in [[game development]], the process of designing and creating games. Game developers often specialize in a particular type of game.
==Board game developer==
A board game developer designs [[board game]]s. Designers of [[German-style board game]]s are often credited on the box.
==Collectible card game developer==
Collectible card game developers design games which are played with cards that can be traded and often collected. [[Richard Garfield]], the creator of ''[[Magic: The Gathering]]'', is probably the most famous [[collectible card game]] developer.
==Role-playing game developer==
Role-playing game developers create [[role-playing game]]s (RPGs). [[Gary Gygax]] and [[David Arneson]] are two of the most famous RPG developers. Together they created ''[[Dungeons & Dragons]]'', one of the earliest RPGs which inspired countless others.
==Video game developer==
A [[video game developer]] creates [[computer game|computer]] or [[video game]]s. For all other types of developers mentioned here, the role played by the [[game designer]] for a video or computer game is analogous to their roles. In a more generic sense, the term "video game developer" can refer to anyone involved in the video or computer development process, such as [[game programmer]]s and [[game producer]]s. The term can also refer to a company specializing in game development. Game developmers can also make up a smaller unit or team within a distribution company.
