This is very sad. I wish the best for his friend and family in this time.
I had heard about this project a while ago and I thought it sounded cool.

It's not a downgrade. It's a totally new way to play.

Wow, I think I remember this project being developed back before the Wii even existed..maybe even before the gamecube was released. ya, what a bummer.

I'm very sad about his death. I've followed his work for a while and it was looking very promising. Not to mention that dying at such a young age is horrible.

As for fans of the OOT2d project though, the original that is still in production is being created by Daniel Barras who is still very alive.

Once again though, rest in peace Dampe.

If it doesn't accomplish what I said, then there is no reason to mourn over him.

Very, very sad. My thoughts and condolences are with his family.

Does anyone know if it was the Melbourne tunnel accident?
