  #Nox Futura, #Roguelike, #Indie, #Unreal

  Between a very heavy workload, and tax week, I didn't have a lot of time to accomplish anything enjoyable this week. This is definitely the one week of the year in which I hate being an independent co... Continue reading
• It's a machine's world!
  April 06, 2018 by Bracket#nox futura, #roguelike, #dwarf fortress, #machines, #indiedev

  I'm getting settled into the new office, and other than the usual "where did we pack the toilet paper?" type questions, it's going pretty well. I've also made some good progress this week; I'm pretty... Continue reading
• Traps, Machines and Context Menus
  March 23, 2018 by Bracket#Nox Futura, #Roguelikedev, #Dwarf-Fortress Like, #Indiedev

  My Nox Futura work this week has been relatively scattered; the last couple of updates exposed a *ton* of functionality, so now I'm catching up on bugs and missing features that have been exposed as a... Continue reading
• Workflow and getting started on stockpiles
  March 16, 2018 by Bracket#Nox Futura, #Roguelike, #Development

  In theory, http://noxfutura.com should now point at my itch.io page. I hope that works, redirects aren't always my friend. There have been a lot of small changes this week: * Tweaked some VS settings... Continue reading
• March 9th 2018 Update
  March 09, 2018 by Bracket#nox futura, #roguelikedev, #roguelike, #dwarf fortress

  Still working on moving office (it'll be a while - we have a *lot* of stuff!), but still finding time to get some things done. I put off a couple of large pieces of feature work, and mostly focused on... Continue reading
• Early March Progress
  March 02, 2018 by Bracket

  A relatively brief update this week (by my standards). Received word part-way through the week that I'm moving office (after lightning strikes, unconscious naked girls and vandalism we're glad to move... Continue reading
• Path-finding, architecture and more.
  February 23, 2018 by Bracket

  The flu sucks, and sadly I succumbed to it right after writing that I'd avoided it in last week's Sharing Saturday. I'm moving around again, but I've temporarily lost most of my hearing; this has made... Continue reading
• Preliminary Apple Mac support
  February 14, 2018 by Bracket

  I'm not 100% sure if it works, but I've made a first stab at posting Mac support. It'll be updated as I test on a few machines and find issues... Continue reading
• Update 2/9/2018 - Farming and buildings
  February 09, 2018 by Bracket#Sharing Saturday, #Screenshot Saturday, #Farming, #Buildings, #Dwarf Fortress

  Just occasionally, work is super light, I'm inspired, and things come together nicely. So a LOT has been accomplished this week! Tooling I only just noticed that my "open source developer" license wit... Continue reading
• Update 2/2/2018
  February 02, 2018 by Bracket#Sharing Saturday

  It's been a pretty productive week! On Tuesday, I concluded that it was time to re-enable nightly builds. The usual caveats apply: *these are unstable, may not work, saves probably won't survive upgra... Continue reading
• Getting NF onto Itch.io
  January 30, 2018 by Bracket#welcome

  I've been working on Nox Futura (formerly Black Future) for about 2.5 years. I previously handled releasing "nightlies" from my own server, but figured itch.io would be a good way to move forward. The... Continue reading
