Dwarf Fortress at E3?
« on: June 19, 2009, 01:20:07 pm »
I was reading the "Stupid question: Why is DF still an indie game and not properly developed/sold?" thread, and that got me wondering...
What would a Dwarf Fortress booth at E3 look like?  How would it be received?

And I've gotta wonder, what do ASCII Booth Babes look like?

The dwarven economy is just a stand-in, from what I understand. As it is, it represents an actual economic system about as well as poison ivy represents a salad.

I like to slip into bear caves around midnight and gently caress the carnivore inside before leaving a small cut of fresh fish and sneaking out.

the flooring of the booth would be . , ; etc, and it should change color depending on how many people walk on it, like green for grass and the more people walk on it it turns to red of silty clay or yellow for sand of that color...

Toady should be there wearing a shirt that has the king on it :D

Military dorfs are the busiest if their partner is also in the military, Military children are my forts future, also its hilariously tragic when a mother carrying her child into battle gets hit, and the baby dies....
I fixed that up for you.

I would bet money Andrew has edited things retroactively, except I can't prove anything because it was edited retroactively.

There will be a Bay12 games booth.... and the walls will be engraved with a human striking a menacing pose and other humans making plaintive gestures...

DF isn't open source anyway. I know what you mean, though.

regardless, the slime shooter will be completed, come hell or high water, which are both entirely plausible setbacks at this point.

I think mocking the hell out of E3 would be quite funny, but I also think that an E3 booth costs quite a bit of money and time, both of which are better spend on actualy working on the game  ;)

You forgot the engraving of the Giant Toad and the Humans worshiping the Toad.
