If I have several free spaces for e.g. furnaces and then try to build just one furnace, it automatically builds multiple furnaces at once. Is that intentional?
No, that was not intentional. I knew about the bug when I submitted to Ludum Dare gamejam, but didn’t have enough time to fix it :( I’ll be fixing that bug and a few others once the jam ratings finish.
Pretty fun loop. Would love a way to remove dorfs from previous stations and reassign them. Early on I dumped them into the mines up high but later on was struggling to afford beds to put even one dorf down low.
I had a way to remove dorfs from stations early on in the game jam, but as I was tinkering with it, it didn’t feel fun to me to juggle dorfs off stations down further onto other stations. Everytime you dig deeper, you are tempted to keep juggling them further down. It felt laborious to me, so maybe there is something worth balancing there so it isn’t so much a chore, but still allows you to achieve the result you want.
I’ll think about this some more. Thanks for your feedback, this is very helpful!
Maybe you could fire dwarfs, and they then take their bed (reducing the number of beds you have bought) as well as any buddy and/or children they have (chosen randomly).
Nice music, good idea, would like to see it developed further (and as it goes on, maybe optimised a bit) Do want to see it thrive, was enjoyable, and just tell people when it's out of content
Thanks for the kind words and suggestion. I put this game together in 3 days for ludum dare, so didn’t have enough time to wrap it up completely. After the jam ratings finish, I plan to add some more content so it will have a more complete feel.
No, sorry I only had 3 days to work on this for Ludum Dare so ran out of time to reach a “boss” type fight. Post jam I plan to add more levels in to have a more complete feeling to the game.

Is there an end?
no, just repeats after a while

Cute simplicity, and lovely music!
