It has been reported that Scottish indie dev Stew Hogarth passed away yesterday following a lifelong battle with congenital heart disease. He was just 34.

Hogarth had roles at Denki and Chunk, and recently founded his own studio, Smiling Bag Games. He'd also worked on projects for Sky, BBC, Cadbury's, Cartoon Network, Dreamworks and Nickelodeon in the past.

Some of Hogarth's final tweets were related to the recently-released Super Mario Maker, and some of the stages he created are being re-shared online in his honour.

RIP, Stew.
