Rip Tom. I had that oh shit, feeling as well for a few seconds. Quite unexpected. I hope his son will find the courage and strength to keep moving forward with his own life. No more pain or illness for you brother, rest eternally man.

Re: The Death of Thomas Ward

Hello,in the hopes of not coming across as ignorant, whose is the other huge name? I guess I'm no longer up to date as far as games go. But Tomb Hunter was definitely something I was looking forward to. May Mr Ward rest in peace, in a better and more grateful world than this one, with the Great Programmer up in Heaven who created the amazing audio game we call real life, and may others build a castle upon the foundations he had to prematurely leave.

Re: The Death of Thomas Ward

Whocrazy, hopefully these were both natural and we don't have some sort of audio games highlander situation going on.  If some guy bursts into my house and cuts of my head to absorb my powers, I'm going to be mad.In all seriousness though, we definitely lost 2 huge names in the audio games community in recent months.  Bad news tends to arrive in threes, so lets all keep our fingers crossed that the rest of us stay safe.

Re: The Death of Thomas Ward

I'm still struggling to come to grips with this.Tom was an absolute gem to have around.  He was friendly, and most importantly a fair moderator.  He was really supportive a year or so back when I was going through a harrowing situation of my own.First it was Jim Kitchen and 6 months later now it's Thomas Ward.RIP my dear friend, you really will be sorely missed.

Re: The Death of Thomas Ward

To answer a couple of questions, from what I understand, Tom had a brain tuma. He had a lot of medical issues with various infections and other problems over the past few years (one reason why he didn't get as much done on game development work as I thought). In December I believe there was a brief, and indeed quite abrupt message from him on the audeasy mailing list, which, as people may know, he was the moderator. One reason this is such a shock is that as has been said, last we heard he seemed to be getting better, or at least that was what we hoped. Sad news indeed, and a major loss, especially to long time community members who likely knew Tom as a friend (some of my own and others' reminiscences see the topic in the news).

I can't believe it.  I have to admit that I didn't realize his absens in this forum, because I haven't been that active in the past myself. Just recently, I was wondering about Tomb Hunter I and it's status. Therefore, it is even more shocking to hear about the death of another, very apreciated, nice and awesome person, known for his intelectual posts and his games he created or wanted to finish.Rest in peace, Thomas Ward, your spirit will be kept alive.

Re: The Death of Thomas Ward

 doesn't even begin to describe it. This is appalling news. Nobody deserves to die, but especially not at such an absurdly young age.He and I had our little disagreements, but I'm sure he was a good person and did good work that we all benefited from. He was a powerful and friendly voice in this community, and I've no doubt elsewhere. And as others have said on here, he will surely be missed. May his spirit continue to shine brightly in all that we do and strive for.RIP, Thomas.

Re: The Death of Thomas Ward

He certainly will be missed. He was a great game developer as well as quite an active member of the open source community, linux and such. His use of Linux is actually what got me into trying linux in the first place. Rest in peace Thomas, and hopefully someone, somewhere can finish his games as he would've wanted to, and even if that doesn't happen, his legacy can still live on as audio game developers continue making great games, hell if we made some games for linux as well that's not only something that Tom would've wanted, it would be a revolution for all the linux users.

Re: The Death of Thomas Ward

No words I write will do this tragedy justice, and yet one such as myself trys his best to find ways to express his thoughts when a life that has clearly touched others including my own is lost.  For some people, we're talking about the loss of an audiogame developer, and this is of great importance to those of us who truly appreciate audio games of every size and depth.  For others, he will be remembered as a powerful and intelectual voice within communities who instructed while seeking answers and truth.  Some people lost a close friend; a child lost his father. We say it was too soon, but the truth is that, it would have been too soon even a hundred years from now.  God's grace and peace be with those who are deeply and profoundly effected and left behind, morning his abrupt and disheartening departure.
