It looks like it runs alongside DF rather than being a tileset replacement unfortunately. Although there is a pretty nice tileset available that I used the last time I played DF (unfortunately I can’t remember the name of it).
DF is a spectacular game, it’s just a pity that the interface scares so many people off (understandably though, I couldn’t play it till I found the tileset)
I tried to get into DF but the inscrutable interface really didn’t help :( If the actual game interface could use something like that screenshot I’d definitely get hooked :)
