VIC 20 Ultima III

23rd April 2025 by Dino

I'm about a month late with this, but MagerValp alerted me to the presence of a new Ultima 3 port for the VIC 20. VIC 20 Ultima III was made by by Aleksi Eeben and released on 20 March 2025. It's based on earlier work by MagerValp.

I've added a subsection for this project in the Ultima 3 info page.

The Lost Vale Usecode Found

2nd April 2025 by Dino

This is slightly old news at this point, but back in February this year, The Ultima Codex reported that a snapshot of The Lost Vale's usecode had been found. The same article has the zip file containing the usecode available for download, and also quotes Discord discussions that summarise its contents and the plot.

For future reference, I've added a link to this article to my Ultima 8 Guide's The Lost Vale page, under the "Clues to the Plot" section.

Savage Empire Speedrun in 7:32

22nd March 2025 by Dino

Crystal Phoenix Hobbies, who I've mentioned a few times in recent news for his Savage Empire speedrun records, has continued to optimise his path through the game. Last month, he set a new record, beating The Savage Empire in 7 minutes and 32 seconds. I've added a link to this new video to the Speedruns section of the Savage Empire Walkthrough page.
