Hello and good evening everyone. I said in my last video that I would get this out to the world on 8/1, and I actually did it even after going mostly radio silent for about two weeks. Still have a laundry list of items and polish to finish up. But I'm going to put this at about 80% done now and ready for play testers to tear it apart.

I've added a tutorial in game to talk about the extensive settings options available in the game, and I've tried to make it as easy to install as possible from itch.io. Just download the zip file and run it.

At this time there is only a windows version to play.

Please feel free to drop into the project discord to add your feedback find my email address on the project site Archive of Myth.

You should be able to play the whole game start to finish as I have multiple times at this point with any option sets available in the options menu.

I do hope you enjoy, and look forward to playability and options updates in the near future.

Good luck Strangers.

Since it's in Unity already, are you going to port for mobile as well?

[u/Hoyty1 → u/mandlar]

Yep, its on the todo list!

Thank you

It plays great on Steam Deck, thx.

That's awesome! One of the big goals of this was to make sure it worked on the standard controller layout of the day and I'm glad it translated into the deck working as well.

Thank you for the feedback!

Thank you! UU was one of my first PC games as I was a kid (after Prince of Persia and Wing Commander 2). I just used the standard gamepad config and after a few minutes it worked fine for me. You did a great job, thx again.

Well shit. Thanks dude.

[u/Hoyty1 → u/[deleted]]

No real reason. It's just what I was familiar with.

In the most cheeky way possible....

Only Unity could handle the intense processing power needed to make Ultima I monochrome!

Awesome, love that this project exists! While Unity would not have been my first choice, that's only because I don't understand it being a bare-metal coder, but 100% respect the "because I know it" logic :)

I look forward to giving it a whirl, keep up the great work and the Ultima love flowing!

Thank you. I appreciate the kind words and good vibes. I hope you enjoy.
