Aktuelle Tidligere  

Description:

Two of the hottest ïndy" games today are Minecraft [1] and Dwarf Fortress [2]. Minecraft is popular for its simple 3D interface and incredible flexibility in world-building. Dwarf Fortress is popular for its complexity and cult following. The goal of this project is to put these two projects together, rendering the world of Dwarf Fortress in 3D within Minecraft, thereby bringing the two communities together. This synthesis will be accomplished by turning a sense-compute-control architecture into a screenscraping-compute-render loop, but doing so in a flexible fashion that naturally evolves with the evolution of both products.
