Wormophobia support group, or the Terraria thread of all things Terraria

I first found out about this when Zetaplays favorited one of the dev's LPs for this. At first I thought "Awesome, it's a 2D minecraft with more combat.", but it's actually awesome in it's own way. Everything about it is generally awesome and as PaperBatVG (the only guy they've given the game to LP so far) says, it does seem to appeal in the many aspects that minecraft doesn't. Apparently the game is ready and will be released once the release preparations are ready.

I recommend at least watching the dev's LP, then if you aren't satisfied they have another person's LP in their playlist. Also episode 23 of PaperBat's LP has the Terraria public relations guy answering more questions about the game.

I am going to try to buy this the day it comes out and I hope you guys think about doing that too.

There is a Nuklearforums Terraria server per the following credentialsials. (Ials.)
1) Get LogMeIn Hamachi.
2) Complain about having to get LogMeIn Hamachi.
3) Connect to the network NPF Bits with the password FPN.
4) Open up Terraria and connect to the IP listed for grabblenab.
5) Enter password FPN.
6) ???
7) Cocaine overdose.

Another LP

This game looks incredibly fun.

Yeah, the guys made a smart move by letting some of the well-known LP guys take an early crack at it. I'm also somewhat amazed at how quickly they gained hype. I think Blue said something about how on the day they released the trailer there were like 5 fan forums and a wiki about the game.

Couldn't they have at least made their own sprites instead of just recoloring Butz? That's some really lazy stuff right there.

So it's not just me, then?

It still looks pretty cool, mind you. 5-20 dollars doesn't seem too bad depending on what progress they make between now and release.

Apparently that was put in place before they hired the new art guy, so hopefully they'll change it to something better soon.

Yeah, in the other thread where this was linked, I mentioned that I didn't think a single one of their sprites was original. Hopefully they fix that, as it really looks... Uncohesive right now.

Saw this on Blue's twitter.

Hey Guys!!!. . . .'Terraria, Coming to your Windows PC, June, 2011'.

It's sooner than his maximum guess earlier, and at least it won't interfere with anybody's education work when it comes out.

But when it does come out I will build castles. Out of gold. In the sky. Multiple times.

Update from Blue's twitter, Terraria should be on Steam on May 16. Still no information on price, but it's nice to know that it's only 4 days away.

On the off chance that someone is taking a trip down memory lane looking through those old threads, I wanted to devote my signature to say directly to you, I'm sorry. Thank you for letting me be better, NPF.
