I've never come across this site before, but I remember watching a video on YouTube and one of the creators was talking about making Crash Bandicoot. As someone non-technical, but who grew up playing Crash Bandicoot, it gave me insight into the crazy amount of work that goes into making a game, but also just how much of a genius these people were that tried to push the limits of what the early gen consoles could do!
