He didn't die, he faked his death.
Now - the creator, 'TheRealMethuselah,' has claimed that OOT 2D has been at 90% completeion for over four years, and coupled with his faked death and the people claiming he stole money from them with prommises to help the game's prgression, but didn't, that and a giant lawsuit possibilty, I think that OOT 2D will not come to fruition.
