Welcome to the Bloody Farms Tavern, the first player established venue. The owner, Riv, has hosted numerous events for the community ranging from auctions, to battle royale, and mongbat fights. #TidesofPower #UltimaOnline #IndieGameDev #Roleplaying

"The realm descended into anarchy and resource scarcity became a grim reality. Fertile farmlands turned into battlegrounds, and brigands and marauders left a bloody legacy of violence and despair." #storytelling #indiegamedev #ultimaonline #tidesofpower

The Paladins might want to step up their offer.... "Hear ye, hear ye! The foul scum known as Blood Tax must fall to preserve us all! For she is responsible for 24 murders. The Paladins set a price of 7 gold pieces for her head..." #ultimaonline #screenshotsaturday #roleplay #indiegamedev

Ships from Papua fled north on the seas towards the Serpent Pillar, hoping to escape the flood, but never made it. Their ships crashed on the shores of a land once called Terra Sanctum. Stranded, they setup what is now known as Settler’s Cove. #UltimaOnline #Storytelling #IndieGameDev

A bird's eye view over a village in the jungle. There are grass roof shelters, dirt paths, and a sturdy but primitive fence surrounding the village. Water and swampland work as a natural border to this place.

In the middle of the forest there is a tavern, the Rotten Tooth Tavern. This tavern is like no others. It's a place that welcomes thugs and bandits. Stolen goods? Bring it to the fence. Need a hit? Sit around the stone fireplace with raiders. Never a dull night. #UltimaOnline #IndieGameDev

This is a screenshot from Ultima Online. It's a wood and plaster tavern filled with bandits in leather, hide and fur-covered woodsmen, soldiers from the city. People are eating, drinking, and discussing business.

This is the upstairs room of an Inn. It's dark but well light by candlelight. There are a few small rooms available and a large suite. This is a screenshot from Ultima Online

An active workshop in the lost village known as Settler's Cove. This small town houses a group of people who were stranded in the lost lands, after the great flood. #TidesofPower #UltimaOnline #Storytelling #IndieGameDev

A rustic workshop featuring leatherworking stations, a tinker's bench, master carpenter's bench. In the center of the workshop is a large forge. The forgemaster stands by the forge, waiting to use the anvil

Welcome to Battlehaven, the first short term rental on Ultima Online Tides of Power. Players can rent and control this battle arena, allowing them to host jousting tournaments, wizard duels, fight nights, and monster bash events. #UltimaOnline #IndieGameDev #TidesOfPower #Roleplaying #90sNostalgia

A battle arena sits on a tropical island. There is room for knights to fight, guests to sit, and multiple gathering places outside. The island has cliffs, dropping off into the sea below. This is a screenshot from Ultima Online.

When players arrive on a new Ultima Online shard, one of the most common places they visit is Lord British's throne room. On Tides of Power, they are in for a rude awakening if they skipped the lore page on our website... The King did not survive the flood. #TidesofPower #UltimaOnline #IndieGameDev

A screenshot from Ultima Online. The scene is inside a castle throne room which has an altar, presumably for a King's throne. Instead, sits a coffin, surrounded by tribute candles left out of respect of those who came to visit.

The Britain Barber is about to get his own shop later this week when we roll out the map update. His shop is just a few steps away from the Cat's Lair tavern and the West bank of Britain. #indiegamedev #worldbuilding #ultimaonline #tidesofpower #90snostalgia

A screenshot from Ultima Online. It shows a barber in his shop, ready to give a hair cut or beard trim. There are stools, mirrors, bottles of liquid, and scissors. Hair trimmings cover the floor.

Agreed, 100%. How many people who say gaming is a waste of time, have no problem watching Netflix, sporting events, or doomscrolling? I'd like to see that graph!

Guests who stay in the room often go missing or have their belongings taken during the night. While designing our Britannia map, I included little easter eggs for future storytelling or for people who enjoy exploring a world full of mystery. #UltimaOnline #IndieGameDev #ScreenshotSaturday

When designing parts of our map, I created spots with hopes that players would place their homes nearby. Today I found this villa next to a mountain forge. They effectively claim the outside decoration as "an asset" to their home too. #storytelling #screenshotsaturday #indiegamedev #tidesofpower

A screenshot from Ultima Online. It features a two story villa sitting on grass next to a mountain. There is a blacksmith workstation with an anvil, forges, sitting upon stone pavers.

The King, @richardgarriott.bsky.social was one of many whom we lost when the flood hit Britannia. While his body was never recovered, a makeshift grave and memorial has been setup in the castle. Citizens still pay tribute to this day. #UltimaOnline #TidesofPower #IndieGameDev #RPG

UO may be an old game but there are great developers making the job of world creators (me) easier than ever before. CentrED# is a pillar of the map work I'm doing. It offers the isometric views for gameplay, and let's the us spin the map. Big thanks to those devs! kaczy93.github.io/centredsharp...
