About

The Developer

I am a software architect and Ultima fan who wanted to combine my skills and passion into a tribute to this groundbreaking franchise. Like many dedicated players, I spent countless hours immersed in the rich world of Britannia, captivated by its expansive lore and connected community.

With experience maintaining the open-source Razor Community Edition for years, my time helping operate shards, and a lifelong enthusiasm for gaming, I decided to blend my expertise and interests to build New Dawn - a celebration of Ultima using its own unique world as the canvas.

The Project

As a solo hobbyist developer, bringing this ambitious vision to life is a monumental challenge. It requires extensive planning, system design, programming, debugging, and testing. But my devotion to Ultima Online and excitement for game creation drive me through each phase.

The Community

While New Dawn stems from my personal vision, its lifeblood flows from the Ultima Online community. I am grateful for the players, creators, and Ultima fans who have shared their perspectives, offered improvements, playtested features, and supported this endeavor.

I believe a welcoming community is integral to any game. My commitment is to cultivate inclusive spaces for all fans to enjoy. Please review the Code of Conduct to understand the standards I uphold for our community.
