Episode 7: Age and Ages
A Strange Mood: The Couple's Dwarf Fortress Podcast
03/14/23 • 55 min
Two weeks may feel like an AGE between episodes, but we’re back and we’re ready to talk about AGES of time... okay, there’s nothing there. Regardless, we’ve got weird news from our forts, and we delve into world generation and how history passes in Dwarf Fortress. We also talk a bit more about FPS problems, managing trash in your fort, and digging straight to hell.

Episode 6: Embarks, Sparkles, and Aquifers
A Strange Mood: The Couple's Dwarf Fortress Podcast
02/28/23 • 54 min
We’re back! Welcome new listeners! We’re talking embark locations, including surroundings and how to deal with aquifers. We both have new forts and lots to say about them, and we mourn the demise of both Ragdreams and Daubedpages. Kristin also had a knock-down, drag-out fight with the microphone about a quarter of the way through this episode, so the sound quality changes for the better after 12ish minutes.

Nothing says romance like zombie entrails and olm people skeletons. We’re both facing some troubles with our forts, and it might be time to move on.

Episode 1: Is Dwarf Fortress A Game or a Toy?
A Strange Mood: The Couple's Dwarf Fortress Podcast
01/18/23 • 43 min
Our very first episode! We talk a little bit about the game itself, introduce you to our worlds, and tackle the big question of whether Dwarf Fortress is a game or a toy. We had a couple of recording glitches, but we thought it was time to drop our pilot episode, so please forgive any audio goofers this once.
For future episodes, this page will feature detailed show notes, the text of short stories, and links to anything we reference.
Enjoy the episode, and thanks for embarking on this journey with us!
