Fun fact: Skype creators Jaan Tallinn, Ahti Heinla and Priit Kasesalu also started as game devs in the late Soviet Estonia. A game from 1989, Kosmonaut, is still available on the company's old website, along with other stuff from that era: http://bluemoon.ee/history/index.html http://bluemoon.ee/history/index.html Keeping this old website online is a nice representation of humility and humbleness of the programmers -- and, it also adds a particular sort of quirkiness which is common for many Estonians (okay, I'm biased). Like, these hyper-successful startup founders still seem to be equally proud of those early creations, alongside Skype.
