Considering this statated as a fan project and, it's a fan project of an indie game; I seriously doubt that he'd get into legal trouble.

Thanks for an advice. I'll try to think of something.For the record, the only reason I bring up the copyright infringement is so that you continue to make this great. I don't want to see this shut down. You can do alot with this engine, and you probably can create a whole new art style and story too

That's still considered copyright infringement as it's using assets from the game.How about you continue working on it as a port for the 3ds and if you get a dmca, you could just turn it into a fan sequel or something.
