Development arc
Toady One has outlined specific Arcs that will be accomplished during the development of Dwarf Fortress. There are 21 in total, and not all may take the same length of time to complete. Each Arc also encompasses certain cores, requirements, bloats, and power goals listed in the Dwarf Fortress development page. [1]
Current Arc(s)
Army Arc
The Army Arc is possibly the biggest endeavor out of all the current Arcs, and is the one being written at the moment. It may take a couple more months to release the third and final version.
Presentation Arc
The Presentation Arc includes, A cleaner interface and more interface and display options [that] will make the game more accessible. Better support for translations. Toady commented and implied that he may cease doing the Army Arc and work on the Presentation Arc if it would mean more donations.
- Toady One: "April has been very thin so far donation-wise (I wasn't on track to make rent when I replied on the 8th; it's slightly better now), and I wasn't feeling like I can grind away on world-gen details quite so much. I dunno. If I have to cut out and jump to the presentation arc, I'd rather have completed in-game army features that you can use during play rather than the other stuff. On the other hand it's best to get as much of the foundation down as possible early on. I'm not sure how it's going to play out at this point. I'll probably have to make some tough decisions soon."
