Interesting, I was always wondering about the DF version numbers.

"Matt: DF is about 28% done, if I read the version numbers correctly?

Tarn: Well, large grain of salt there, but yeah. Of course, once it gets up to v1, I have all the post v1 items posted as well…"

Maybe DF will reach ~v0.35 after the full Army Arc is completed?  :)
Ah man, I am really wondering how awesome v1.0 will be.  8)

Hehe saw it first at Three panel soul then saw it mentioned in the devlog, thinking "Awesome two interviews" I take  a look and realise that it's the same one.

I really need to sleep more

I was under the impression the version was 0.# of cores done.# of reqs done.# of bloats done, which would leave us at around 0.60.600.400, but I dunno anymore.

Hmm...I've never been a big fan of CCGs - I mean, I did and still do collect Pokemon cards, but I never got heavily into the battling and trading thing.

By definition that makes you a fan since you still buy them.

It's kind of funny - if not a bit disturbing - that Toady said in the interview how worried he is about 3rd parties...this most recent release has a built in feature that basically makes Prospector, probably one of the most widely used utilities, obsolete.

Modder beware...

I don't really see how a useful feature being included in the game is 'disturbing'

As you journey to the center of the world, feel free to read the death announcements of those dwarves that suffer your neglect.

One billion b-balls dribbling simultaneously throughout the galaxy. One trillion b-balls being slam dunked through a hoop throughout the cosmos. I can feel every single b-ball that has ever existed at my fingertips, I can feel their collective knowledge channeling through my veins. Every jumpshot, every rebound and three-pointer, every layup, dunk and free throw.
