History and Longevity
Starport has been available to the public for free play since February 2004. The original concept was conceived in 1995 and continued to develop until its release to the public on February 3, 2004. It was developed by a moderately small team of full-time developers. The game now only has one full-time staff member, Aaron Hunter. He is the original developer and came up with the idea for the game. He is known by the community as "Toonces". The current staff consists of Aaron Hunter and one part-time staff member who helps with coding as well as the maintenance of the "Blitzkrieg" server.
