I ask about what I think is a real possibility: Dwarf Fortress sells a million copies at $20 each. What is his life after that? “There’s no reason we’d get up to a million copies, but if we did, that’s at the point where Zack and I would both have like 5 million dollars, and I don’t know what that means,” he says. “Is that going to corrupt my morality somehow and turn me into a strange person? Because that seems to be a thing that happens. That’s why I’m thinking, just try to pitch it away as fast as possible. People expect me to take care of myself, that’s what I’m going to do, make sure that my health is in order, make sure that the game is in order, and the rest of it? You know, there are a lot of people and animals and other stuff that are in trouble. Kids that don’t have school supplies. All kinds of stuff. It’s like Brewster’s Millions, right? You’ve just got to get rid of it, man, that’s how I feel about it.” 

the game glitched and i created a 700 pound 4,000,000 dollar fruit salad

Dwarf Fortress is coming to Steam as a paid edition! What does this mean for us?

Well, I want to first of all state that the tileset in the trailer will be able to be turned off (thank Armok), and hopefully this will generate a renewed interest in Dwarf Fortress globally.

As for the pair’s reasoning - being the increased concern for healthcare - it is a palpable one. Being from Australia, I’ve not had to struggle with paying for healthcare too much. I’ll be purchasing a large sum of copies, either to giveaway on the blog or to friends just to help the two.

Either which way, fellow fans of the Fortress - do not despair at the entry into a new age. Please support the latest edition of Dwarf Fortress if you can! If you can’t, you can find the Patreon for Bay12 here:

Here’s the WIP shots of the Workshops in the new Tileset! Don’t they look fancy?

Tarn and Zach can be found in the #dwarf-fortress channel on the Kitfox Games Discord: https://discord.gg/kitfoxgames

I’m in there myself if you want to pop in and say hello!
