Development
Recreational Brainware was led by 2 programmers - Burt Sloane and Jonathan Miller and was based in San Francisco. The Sega Mega Drive/Genesis game was developed by Recreational Brainware in conjunction with Sega of America co-developer, Scott Berfield, who also assisted in the development of the Illinois based NuFX Game Gear game while the Sega Master System game was developed in Japan. A key feature of the Sega Mega Drive/Genesis game was its musical soundtrack composed by Mark Steven Miller and Jim Hedges - one of the first to use tagged musical soundtrack to react with the player's gameplay actions. A semi-sequel to this game in design and concept but unrelated to the Taz-Mania cartoon series was also developed and released by Sega on the same platforms in between 1994-1996 entitled Taz in Escape from Mars. Other different Taz-Mania games were also developed by Sunsoft and released on the SNES and Game Boy.

Famous quotes containing the word development:
“The American has dwindled into an Odd Fellow—one who may be known by the development of his organ of gregariousness.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“I hope I may claim in the present work to have made it probable that the laws of arithmetic are analytic judgments and consequently a priori. Arithmetic thus becomes simply a development of logic, and every proposition of arithmetic a law of logic, albeit a derivative one. To apply arithmetic in the physical sciences is to bring logic to bear on observed facts; calculation becomes deduction.”
—Gottlob Frege (1848–1925)
“Men are only as good as their technical development allows them to be.”
—George Orwell (1903–1950)
