I've been waiting on this one for awhile. I enjoyed the another game they made, Biomass, and as I understand it this is basically a sequel/reboot of that.

i watched this on Tubi, its an animated adaptation of an epic hungarian poem. ngl this one's gonna live rent free in my brain.

Trying to use DFhack to see if i can emulate predator behavior. Tigers don't want to PVP your village, they want to grab the weakest link and run off. Imagine an adventuring party and one guy gets yanked into the dark by an ogre. Do you pursue and risk a fight or cut your losses? That's strategy.
"Yeah, yeah"

absurd that these are the same animal
Every time april fools comes up i have this fantasy of making a total conversion that makes every single thing in DF into a crab. Crab stones, crab people, crab crops. The issue is it would be just as time-consuming as an actual total conversion and thus insane to do. But in theory I could.
I wish more people knew about handgonnes. That there was this Cambrian Explosion of firearms before the iconic gun shape was settled on. Any hunk of wood or pole of metal could have a tube affixed to it and people would just rawdog that. Maybe weld a blade on it. All in the 1200s-1300s. Insane.

To be fair it definitely does have that aforementioned vibe in downtime but the imagery of this seemingly normal lost guy just lawnmowering his way through the megadungeon really gets me. The puzzles are also in fact present and neat.
Got Horripilant while looking for weird dark fantasy inspo. Went in blind; I was expecting something somber and plodding like an old school dark souls or king's field in clicker format with puzzles. This is also fine
And I have to be so clear, the demon thing is not a scripted event. You are God's chosen vessel and His divine providence has gifted you infinity civilian vehicles and a bulldozer scoop to weld to them.

Wildly in-depth mechanics and a kind of energy i have not felt anywhere else. No other game lets me drive full speed into a demon with an SUV that used to carry kids to school while royalty free rock music blasts from the radio
Went to take out trash, stymied by this foul beast in its cavern (harmless carpenter bee (singular) in burrow) (large) (scary), engaged in a tense standoff (to avoid hurting the bee) (it kept diving at me). Thinking what if it was the size of a cat and a TTRPG party was on a narrow ledge. Plotting.
A quick sketch of a four-armed Chimera from The Long Night next to a much smaller Paragoomba from the Super Mario series.
It works.
Shrubland which tapers to the edge of an old forest with thick undergrowth. Could be anything in there. I love ascii. Don't even see the tiles anymore.
In that case good luck! But if there's anything that's definitely my fault, do report it.
I can't promise it won't explode but do have fun
The big Long Night update is finally out on steam! Lots of new stuff from procgen domestic animals to a completely overhauled tripartite "magic" system complete with type affinities for posthumans. I hope it is enjoyable.
I recommend reading the manga MAD. Its kind of like if Fire Punch was about xenomorphs, but I'm underselling it.
I am learning to use DFhack
I will also update the website soon tho
I know the "proper" thing to do would be to wait to announce it until it is good and polished but man I've been dyingggg these past few months with how long it took and i want to prove it was, in fact, spent making something so here it is buyer beware its fucked in here
The latest iteration of my mod is now available on DFFD! It shall remain there for stress testing until it goes to Steam proper and is largely feral and poorly documented outside of the changelog but most things should be explained diagetically

"getting ash babied" has irrecoverably altered my vocabulary
I would describe it as a mix of armored core and EDF, with the hammiest dialogue you have ever heard. Janky but I enjoyed it. Hoping the sequel improves on stuff like being to upgrade NPC units and make bigger battles a thing.
sequel to the game only i have played is coming out, you should check out the first one:
