Well, most of what I have read suggest its like 3-4 smaller, and 
differently styled, games for each "stage", and that its was "basically" 
gutted of anything either actually science based, or complicated and 
hard to do, for the "cute and easier to play" option. There was 
basically an internal conflict over direction and the whole design team 
split into a "cute" team and a "realism and difficulty" team, and the 
"cute" one won. So.. Take from that what you will. lol

-- 
void main () {

     if version = "Vista" {
       call slow_by_half();
       call DRM_everything();
     }
     call functional_code();
   }
   else
     call crash_windows();
}
