I think this is called progress?

So I've been working on Dwarven Stronghold for a while now. At one point, an overnight agent wrote a few thousand files as templates... This is the templates being fleshed out, file by file.

I think fair to say, it's getting to be a bit bigger than Dwarf Fortress, fingers crossed it's as good!

Also if anyone's curious, current LOC for the entire project is at:
Total Files: 9,652
Total lines: 10,519,594

😂 Once the simulation loop is working properly, I'll release it, still got over 1k files to go with the fixing, then it's wiring them all into the hub and spoke loop, then gotta sort the renderer out, GUI, then it'll be atleast at a mediocre state to play. A bit overly ambitious project for a solo developer... But that's exactly why it's my hobby project, it can take it's time. Gunna be properly open-sourced, not just free. That way people can mod it!

End goal is DF, but procedurally rendered, with first-person mode too and full VR support. So that part's probably gunna have to be a phase 2 expansion, rather than part of the initial release...
