Bay 12 Games Forum

I am literally singing and dancing as i play my current fort. yeah shits happening with tantrums, but its not to the point of, wa wa wa i want to quit playing. i hope the stress balances more and more for more fun!

Ironhand has always been my favorite tile set to use, so much so that i dont particularly like to play with another. is there any chance someone out there can assist in playing the newest version of the game with that tileset. the updates are really nice sounding, many fixes to stress. i imagine tarn would like a more playable version of the game when he releases it for money to the masses.

 being a dwarfy game, i see the surface as a tangled mess, so it does not bother me to see it look that way, if you get what i mean... I would like to see sprites that depict to the best of their ability what the game says. The variation of tiles can help bring the game to life. there should be some uniformity to what plants are in a biome, but that seems like more of a coding thing.

showing the dwarves with the proper weapon type and weapon material would be enough for me. i really want to see the dwarves skin color and hair color displayed. I dont know if its been discussed yet, but i would also like to see differentiation between male and female dwarfs.

The spotted shroom reminds me of a platform from mario 1. these will definitely give the underground a lot more character.

I notice you guys have made plant seeds. im wondering how the plant sprites are coming along. underground plants will be fun, also eagerly awaiting hemp plants.

having added hemp plants, and having alcohol, one might expect some smokable activities to occure. pipe making and smokable product production might make sense. animations for smokeing dwarves would be supreme. not every dwarf should smoke, but it would make sense that some would. pipes would be a great craft.

I notice in some pictures that single tile walls appear to have lots of black/hidden area in the middle. When i play i like the aesthetics of single walled buildings but i dont know if all that black would make sense in that case. also i dont think pillars will be as grand with all the empty space.
