Marc de Haas = No1?

Hi all! :)
I've just read the name "Marc de Haas" for the first time in the intro screen of the old fangame "Xmas BD 2001" made by five different BD fans. I know who the other four are, but this name I've never heard of before, so I wonder if it might be No 1's real name!? I thought that mainly because the name sounds Dutch to me. On the other hand, I'm not sure if No1 was still part of the BD community at that time. So now I'm kinda confused :D

Happy 2025 BTW! ;)

I'm quite sure that "Marc de Haar" is meant. Also known under nickname "OdO", but he is not No1. He contributed caves to the Xmas game and created a small series of fangames as well, named "The Lost Levels". See:

No1 completely turned over to the Amiga scene early on. On that platform, Emerald Mine had a much more active scene than Boulder Dash, thus a bunch of games can be found here: https://www.emeraldmines.net/

Thank you guys :)


Yes, I meant Marc de Haar indeed, sorry.
@Arno: ah, yes OdO says me something, and his Lost Levels too. So that's him, alright, thx!

@Logic: yes, I had something like that in my head, that's why I found it unlikely that it could be No1. Thx!
