Edgar M. Vigdal has sadly passed away

Author of the fantastic 'Deluxe Galaga' on the Amiga.
Incase newer Amigan's may have missed these games, I'll include the links here (both ECS and AGA versions).

Quote from his website, EMV Software:

"Some  very sad and very serious news for everyone following the development  of Warblade Mk II and Deluxe Galaga Reborn. Unfortunately Edgar Vigdal  passed away on the evening of the 1st April 2015 of cancer. I believe  the death of his father and the toll that brought on him along with his  lifelong illnesses had worn him down. We are all shocked and saddened by  this news and my deepest warmest thoughts are with his family and  friends. I will miss Edgar very much, he has been a big part of my life  for many many years now through our long chats and late nights on Skype.
  RIP my great friend. Keep on coding...
