That’s sad to hear, and after it seemed to be making so much progress too.

Oh, I loved the level design of Banjo-Tooie. It was done so ingeniously, and it was fun traveling between worlds.

I hate to report this, but the project was officially declared dead last week. The devs said that they just couldn’t make the time for it anymore between their day jobs and family life. Unfortunate but understandable, hopefully someone will make a new game to carry the 3D Platformer torch.

I agree that Tooie is the better game of the outstanding duo.

I know many did not like the backtracking on that game, but I was just floored due to how they were able to connect all of the worlds.

It's a shame that the franchise just kind of petered out the way it did. I've not played Grunty's Revenge or Nuts and Bolts, but I've read that neither was all that popular with fans. (Though Nuts and Bolts seemed to have fared better overall.) It seems that the fan-made Banjo sequel, Project Imagination!, is still rolling along, so it'll be interesting to see what comes of that.
