Our Purpose
Cedar Harbor Studios is a creative development studio building games, software, and interactive experiences with purpose and heart.
We build tools and tell stories that bring people together. The work starts small, stays intentional, and grows around the people who use it.
Not everything we build needs a business case. The Rift grew out of a decades-long personal fascination with MUDs and ROM 2.4b6—and somehow that old hobby has turned into a new .NET game engine, persistent world, spatial simulation, and browser-based world editor. Here's where it came from, what we're building, and a thank-you to the developers whose work made it possible.
Development on Streams is moving beyond the desktop application itself. We’ve been building the account, licensing, organization, deployment, and recovery infrastructure needed to support a real Cedar Harbor Studios product after launch.
After a break from macro development, I returned to The Rift and gave the game a major facelift—expanding it into a 60-system persistent universe with physical System Space, Rift gates, stations, exploration, industry, fleets, and combat.
