alt Hacker NewsWas 3 years a long time for an indie platformer in the early 2000s? Looking at some similar examples:
* Braid was 3 years
* Cave Story was 5 years
* World of Goo was 2 years
* Limbo was about 3 years (but with 8-16 people)
So Braid seems pretty average.

Yeah, you’re right. I must’ve misremembered.
Wow! I'm shocked Limbo took 3 years and had a larger team. I've played a bit of the game (but didn't complete it). Looking at the Steam reviews and a quick search shows me it takes 3-10 hours to beat the game. :O
