NES/Dwarf Fortress Streaming Continues! LIVE!


I'm getting damn close to beating Ninja Gaiden and Double Dragon II. The Dwarf Fortress plods along, almost self-sufficient at this point, but the sieges are becoming more aggressive and the greater the wealth of my kingdom, the greater the terrors that will try to take it.

Day 4. The epic adventure continues tonight!

Will goblins take me down? Unlikely? What can stop me? Nothing. Nothing can stop me.

Day 3 Streaming Dwarf Fortress Starts Now!



Join the Dwarf Fortress phenomenon. Yesterday I streamed for 12 hours. Today? Who knows!

If I can take out the ghost in the above screenshot, so can yooooooou!

As always there will be awesome 8-Bit music rocking all day.


Defeating the Marsh Titan in Dwarf Fortress


He was no match for 40 dwarfs in iron plate armor. Titans count as Megabeast, if I remember correctly. This was my first Megabeast but I hope to fight more soon. Good exp.

Dwarf Fortress Marsh Titan


"The Marsh Titan Bilalo Mafiirede Amalafidale has come! A great humanoid composed of solid salt. It has a round shell and it moves deliberately. Beware it's deadly spittle!"

Awesome this should be fun.

A Nice Dwarf Forest


Great forest and some lakes. In a few years I'll chop down all these trees, but fear not: they will grow back.

Epic Mead Hall Under Construction


A picture of my half-completed epic dining hall in Dwarf Fortress. Notice the fancy statues. This thing should be able to feed my fortress forever. Zug zug!

This hall will last forever, and so will the twitch streaming!

8 Hours of Micro Mayhem



The Dwarf Fortress non-stop stream continues today! We streamed for 6 hours yesterday and I want to break that record today.

The bridge is down, the food is short, and the drink doesn't exist. Looks like its going to be even more fun than yesterday, so come by my twitch channel and check it out.

I'm going to rock the Dwarf Fortress and the 8-Bit music all day long. 8+ hours of non-stop micro and mayhem.

We are working with over 170 Dwarfs and 8 military squads. I have to tackle to food situation first, and some design flaws are starting to manifest with more dwarfs.

It's gonna be a challenge, but so what?

You can watch on 8-Bit City via this plugin. Probably better to go to twitch though!

Dwarf Fortress "There Will Be Ghosts" Episodes 3 - 5


Not going down without a fight. The conclusion to my first Dwarf Fortress video. This was a great fortress with lots of steel, it's too bad I didn't master the art of gearing out 2 squads of Dwarfs earlier. I had the metal.

It was fun making these videos, and I hope to make more Dwarf Fortress episodes very soon.My mic is driving my crazy, I need to get a new one ASAP. At least I can turn it off when I'm not talking. I try not to talk to much.

I'm not using my mic either, just blasting good NES tunes.

The picture is of the outside of my base, to see the 120 Dwarfs trying to work inside, follow the link.

Modding Dwarf Fortress - How to Remove Aquifers




I got tired of generating good worlds ruins by aquifers in Dwarf Fortress so I decided to mod my version to remove them. You can watch the short video tutorial if you want to remove aquifers also!

10 GOTO

DwarfFortress/raw/objects

You just need to replace all instances of "[AQUIFER]" with
"(AQUIFER)" in each of these 3 files.

Wow, easy and awesome!

"There Will Be Ghosts" is a 5-part Dwarf Fortress mini-series. Witness the rise and fall of an epic Dwarven Kingdom.

As the title promises, there is at least one ghost in fortress.
