Found out about “Whisky” on MacOS and … well, that happened: Dwarf Fortress for Mac is finally possible - and easy to set up!.

Remember: ¡Losing is fun! I’m glad I didn’t see this post earlier in the semester 😆

Now I just have to understand the library-overrides and see if there’s a way to fix “Mørkredd” (trips on OpenGL).

Update 2024-07-07

Oh wow, the developers nuked the keyboard-commands and there are now essential parts in Dwarf Fortress that are mouse-only, for example the job-orders. Scheduling a full set of leather armor with all the components now takes like … IDK, couldn’t be bothered to click all of this in yet.

Naturally, fans of the original are not amused (discussion on Steam, on Reddit).

Folks may complain about the accessibility of the original, but there was probably no need to break it while adding an alternative (unless the architecture really makes it impossible).
