I just noticed that there wasn't a post on Bay12 for this yet! I saw it on Reddit yesterday, and I think this has the potential to be a rather enjoyable DF-like. I personally quite like the "corporate" relationship between your colony and the homeland that they have in mind.

They have a kickstarter up: http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1078333633/dwarfcorp?ref=card

Description from their site http://www.dwarfcorp.com/site/about/:

What is Dwarfcorp?

DwarfCorp is a comedic fantasy real-time strategy game in which you lead a colony of ruthless capitalist Dwarves to discover new lands, and exploit them for profit!

Dig deep into the earth to discover rare gems and ores, and send them back to the motherland in a balloon or ship. Defend your colony with walls, traps, and mercenaries. Promote your employees for their good work, or give them a slap if they get sloppy. Meet Elves, Goblins, Mole Men, Demons and more! Design your company logo and color scheme, and watch your company stock rise and fall against your competitors!

We are a two-man team of amateurs making the game of our dreams in our spare time. After developing this game for almost a year, we will soon be looking for backers on Kickstarter to help us make releasing this a reality. We are also looking for feedback and potential collaborators. We’d love to hear from you!

So...part DF, part Minecraft, part Dungeon keeper?

I'll have to ponder if I want to back this or not. But it's worth watching, at the very least.

I really like the graphics, reminds me of the early half-3d games.

Cons:
-No socks...

Sexy.  I like the looks of it.

[Chattox]

Hmm, colour me intrigued. Are there any recent gameplay vids showing what the game is like in it's current state? I'll check them tomorrow and decide whether I get the game or the instant access tier.

Meh... looks like any number of DF-alikes.

It only took 4 replies! Is that a new record?

I'm just wondering exactly what is going to set this apart from the myriad clones that can't seem to get it quite right.

[Robsoie]

Interesting, the video shows it has potential, will have to follow how it's developping.

[choppy]

hmm. i will have to keep an eye on this.

[Belinsky]

Wrong thread sorry. 

[forsaken1111]

Just got to WWII Surplus and need to build weapons factories. Any donations are graciously accepted. I also have 30k troops if anyone is in need.

Suddenly I was interested in the game. Then...

Wrong thread sorry.

ptw

not sure if i like it. they'll certainly have some competition going on

[Neonivek]

It is hard for me to deny the game's charm. There is something about the way it looks that is rather appealing.

[Xantalos]

Hmm! Watching with interest.
