Ultima 5 for TI Calculators
Produced by: David Randall
A port of Ultima 5 for the TI-89 family of programmable calculators.
A port of Ultima 5 for the TI-92 family of programmable calculators.
An ambitious project to port Ultima 5 to Texas Instruments programmable calculators, this remake took a little over a year to reach completion; it was released in June of 2008.
This remake has a number of features, some new to Ultima 5 , which include:
- 512 tiles, 11×11 pixels and 4 colors. The original tiles were 16×16 pixels and 16 colors.
- 2 world maps (each with a size of 256×256 tiles)
- 32 multi level towns (each level size 32×32 tiles)
- 8 multi level dungeons
- about 150 NPCs; each NPC has a unique daily schedule and conversation script.
- 400 hours of game play(!!)
David Randall’s remake should be compatible with TI-89 and TI-92 calculators. It may work on newer calculator models as well, but this is untested.
I’m buying a TI calculator so I can take it on my camping trips and play U5 at night in my tent (The battery life should last me through the week). So damn awesome. As someone who’s done embedded device programming I have a double appreciation for this amazing thing.
