I guess Mechner was the lead programmer in that he probably woke up and told himself "Jordan, you're gonna code some Prince of Persia today" and then he did it.

By the time someone else was involved it'd have been for porting to other platforms, at which point I think his input wasn't super frequent or close. The 80s games industry was a very weird place.
