He has a runable demo posted in a thread over on AtariAge. https://forums.atariage.com/topic/345354-ultima-v-wip/ It's also noteworthy that another user Zolaeria did some amazing music for U5 and the two of them have worked together to marry the two projects. Once they get the storyline part of the game implemented, it should be even better. He also posts his source code.
