In the newest episode of the show I chat with Tarn Adams, the programmer behind the cult-classic PC colony simulator Dwarf Fortress.

We discuss how Dwarf Fortress sprang to life unexpectedly at Bay 12 Games, the company that Tarn and his brother Zach have been running for nearly two decades, as well as what’s in store for the future for the game and how their unique approach to game development has carved out a special place in the annals of video game history.
