How many lines of code of each, how many people, how much work on which parts?

I dunno why, because I'm certain I've seen games like this somewhere, but this just seems really cool and sorta inspiring, along the lines of "hey, you can just write code and toss it in a browser and go". (Not to be rude; I'm sure it took a lot of effort.) This is one of the first times I've ever felt this way. Ever since '95, I've never been impressed with a web version of something, because usually it's a weak imitation of a native program. But this just feels like something different.

We're a great community and 2 developers. A lot of work goes into the details (we must have spent over a day just tuning the jump, or the way chat words are floating and such, not to mention the whole architecture Scott has set up), as well as to adjust to what the community is asking for, and new needs we see. It won't surprise you that a lot of the work goes into making things mmo-compatible.

JavaScript/ html5 has pros and cons but one thing that is fun is to be able to quickly release updates, sometimes several times over the course of a day, which will then instantly be visible to everyone in the world (and since we're using a browser wrapper for e.g. the iPad version, it will also be updated across devices).
