    You know, back when I bought a copy of "Star Flight" back in the late 80's I was so impressed with the lable on the box that claimed "15 MAN-YEARS OF DEVELOPMENT!!". It was such an awesome game too, I can't count the hours I spent playing Star Flight and Star Flight II.

    Looking at this game, assuming a constant 20 person team over a decade of development time, that's 200 man-years of development. The true number is almost certainly higher than that.

    The mind boggles.
