That's because Rollercoaster tycoon and Transport tycoon (of which Openttd is a remake) were made by the same programmer: Chris Sawyer.

    Wow! That game was developed by a single guy? In assembly?? That's incredible!

    How does one even begin to manage a project this large and complex in assembly?

      It’s an achievement, for sure. Maybe it’s just me, but there’s not really anything special about assembly. It does require a different way of thinking than higher level languages, but if you’re used to it, why not continue using what you’re good at?
