Supernova Creations
Supernova Creations was a game development studio formed in 1991 by Trevor C. Sorensen, along with programmer Brett Keeton and artist/designer Richard Launius. It was the successor to Sorensen's Interstel Corporation that was shut down in 1992 following a hostile takeover bid that forced him to sell his shares.
The studio released its first game, Star Legions, in the same year. A Windows version of Star Fleet, called Star Fleet Deluxe, reached beta status in 2002, but went no further after the death of Brett Keeton that same year. Sorensen went on to pursue a career for NASA in the nineties and eventually made an academic career as a professor.
