Coming to Steam and itch.io! DOWNLOAD DWARF FORTRESS CLASSIC 0.47.05 (January 28, 2021) Windows Linux Mac. Current Development: RSS Feed, Release Feed, @Bay12Games. Ack, dev log updates slipped again. My Excuses, he he: first Covid shot! Birthday incoming. Or, show us what ya got (er, had). I'm not sure how many people have had many Macs as I'm sure this crowd is mostly recent(ish) switchers, but let's have a go anyway. Also just for shits and gigges I installed it back then. I actually tried quite a share of OSes. Like BeOS, various Linux versions, OS2/Warp and of course Mac OS. I love Windows, but I found that Mac OS does many things (including shortcuts) more naturally than Windows. BUT there's also things I prefer in Windows.
